RESPONDENT
ORDER
The proposed findings and recommendations submitted by Magistrate Judge H. David
Young and the petitioner’s objections thereto have been reviewed.
After careful
consideration of the objections and a de novo review of the record, it is concluded that the
findings and recommendations should be, and hereby are, approved and adopted in their
entirety in all respects.
The petition for writ of habeas corpus [Doc. No.2] pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 filed
by Ivory Purifoy is dismissed with prejudice. In § 2254 cases, a certificate of appealability
may issue only if the petitioner has made a substantial showing of the denial of a
constitutional right. 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(1)-(2). As there is no issue on which Purifoy has
made a substantial showing of a denial of a constitutional right, a certificate of appealability
is denied.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 6th day of October 2014.
