The recommended disposition submitted by United States Magistrate Judge Beth

should be, and hereby is, approved and adopted in all respect. Accordingly, the petition for
writ of habeas corpus [Doc. No. 2] is denied and dismissed, with prejudice. In accordance
with Rule 11(a) of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases, a certificate of appealability will
not be issued because Lewis has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a
constitutional right. 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(1)-(2).
IT IS SO ORDERED this 7th day of January 2014.
