appealability in the final order should be issued.
In § 2254 cases, a certificate of
appealability may issue only if the applicant has made a substantial showing of the denial of
a constitutional right. 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(1)-(2). It is determined that there is no issue on
which Mr. Kelley has made a substantial showing of a denial of a constitutional right. Thus,
the certificate of appealability is denied.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Mr. Kelley’s petition [Doc. No. 2] is
DISMISSED with prejudice. The requested relief is denied and any pending motions are
denied as moot.
