*1 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT WESTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS WACO DIVISION UNITED STATES OF AMERICA §
§
vs. § NO: WA:24-CR-00209(1)-ADA
§
(1) KEVERY CHRISTOPHER KNOX §
ORDER ACCEPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Before the court is the above styled and numbered cause. On February 13, 2025 the United States Probation Office filed a Petition For Warrant or Summons For Offender Under Supervision for Defendant (1) KEVERY CHRISTOPHER KNOX, which alleged that Knox violated a condition of his supervised release and recommended that Knox 's supervised release be revoked (Clerk's Document No. 22). A warrant issued and Knox was arrested. On February 19, 2025, Knox appeared before a United States Magistrate Judge, was ordered detained, and a revocation of supervised release hearing was set.
Knox appeared before the magistrate judge on May 13, 2025, waived his right to a preliminary hearing and to be present before the United States District Judge at the time of modification of sentence, and consented to allocution before the magistrate judge. Following the hearing, the magistrate judge signed his report and recommendation on May 14, 2025, which provides that having carefully considered all of the arguments and evidence presented by the Government and Defendant, based on the original offense and *2 the intervening conduct of Knox, the magistrate judge recommends that this court revoke Knox supervised release and that Knox be sentenced to imprisonment for TWELVE (12) months, with no term supervised release to follow the term of imprisonment, and with credit for time already served (Clerk's Document No. 43).
A party may serve and file specific, written objections to the proposed findings and recommendations of a magistrate judge within fourteen days after being served with a copy of the report and recommendation, and thereby secure a de novo review by the district court. See 28 U.S.C.§ 636(b); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b). A party's failure to timely file written objections to the proposed findings, conclusions, and recommendation in a report and recommendation bars that party, except upon grounds of plain error, from attacking on appeal the unobjected-to proposed factual findings and legal conclusions accepted by the district court. Douglass v. United Services Auto Ass 'n, 79 F.3d1415 (5th Cir. 1996) (en bane). The parties in this cause were properly notified of the consequences of a failure to file objections.
On May 13, 2025, following the hearing on the motion to revoke supervised release, all parties signed a Waiver Of Fourteen Day Rule For Filing Objections To Report and Recommendation OfUnited States Magistrate Judge (Clerk's Document No. 41). The court, having reviewed the entire record and finding no plain error, accepts and adopts the report and recommendation filed in this cause.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation of the *3 United States Magistrate Judge filed in this cause (Clerk's Document No. 43 ) is hereby ACCEPTED AND ADOPTED by this court.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant (1) KEVERY CHRISTOPHER KNOX's term of supervised release is hereby REVOKED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant (1) KEVERY CHRISTOPHER KNOX be imprisoned for TWELVE (12) months with no term of supervised release, and with credit for time already served.
Signed this 16th day of May, 2025.
