ORDER

16
Before the Court is the Amended Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) of Magistrate
17
Judge Voss (Doc. 16) regarding Petitioner’s Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus filed
18
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (Doc. 1). The R&R recommends that the Petition be denied
19
and dismissed with prejudice. The Magistrate Judge advised the parties that they had
20
fourteen days to file objections to the R&R. (R&R at 7 (citing 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)). On
21
January 25, 2012, Petitioner filed an objection to the R&R (Doc. 19) and a motion requesting
22
a certificate of appealability (Doc. 20).
23
The Court has considered the Petitioner’s objections and reviewed the Report and
24
Recommendation de novo. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) (stating that the
25
court must make a de novo determination of those portions of the Report and
26
Recommendation to which specific objections are made). The Court agrees with the
27
Magistrate Judge’s determinations, accepts the recommended decision within the meaning
28
of Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b), and overrules Petitioner’s objections. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)
1
(stating that the district court “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings
2
or recommendations made by the magistrate”).

Having considered the issuance of a Certificate of Appealability from the order
denying Petitioner’s Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus, the Court finds that the Petition
is justified by a plain procedural bar and jurists of reason would not find the procedural
ruling debatable. Accordingly, Certificate of Appealability and leave to proceed in forma
pauperis on appeal will be denied.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Petitioner’s Request for Certificate of
Appealability (Doc. 20) is denied.
