ORDER DISMISSING PETITION AS

DANIEL PARAMO,
Respondent.
ORDER DIRECTING CLERK OF COURT TO
CLOSE CASE
16
17
Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition for writ of habeas corpus
18 pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254.
19
On May 15, 2015, the Magistrate Judge issued a Findings and Recommendation that
20 recommended that the petition be dismissed as duplicative. On May 15, 2015, the Findings and
21 Recommendation was served on Petitioner and contained notice that any objections were to be
22 filed within thirty (30) days after being served with this Findings and Recommendation. Over
23 thirty (30) days have passed, and Petitioner has not filed any objections.
24
In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C), this Court has conducted
25 a de novo review of the case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the Court concludes that
26 the Magistrate Judge's Findings and Recommendation is supported by the record and proper
27 analysis, and there is no need to modify the Findings and Recommendation.
28
A state prisoner seeking a writ of habeas corpus has no absolute entitlement to appeal a
1
1 district court’s denial of his petition, and an appeal is only allowed in certain circumstances.
2 Miller-El v. Cockrell, 537 U.S. 322, 335-36 (2003). The controlling statute in determining
3 whether to issue a certificate of appealability is 28 U.S.C. § 2253, which provides as follows:

(a) In a habeas corpus proceeding or a proceeding under section
2255 before a district judge, the final order shall be subject to
review, on appeal, by the court of appeals for the circuit in which
the proceeding is held.
(b) There shall be no right of appeal from a final order in a
proceeding to test the validity of a warrant to remove to another
district or place for commitment or trial a person charged with a
criminal offense against the United States, or to test the validity of
such person’s detention pending removal proceedings.
(c) (1) Unless a circuit justice or judge issues a certificate of
appealability, an appeal may not be taken to the court of
appeals from–
(A) the final order in a habeas corpus proceeding in which
the detention complained of arises out of process issued by
a State court; or
(B) the final order in a proceeding under section 2255.
(2) A certificate of appealability may issue under paragraph (1)
only if the applicant has made a substantial showing of the
denial of a constitutional right.
(3) The certificate of appealability under paragraph (1) shall
indicate which specific issue or issues satisfy the showing
required by paragraph (2).
If a court denies a petitioner’s petition, the court may only issue a certificate of
20 appealability “if jurists of reason could disagree with the district court’s resolution of his
21 constitutional claims or that jurists could conclude the issues presented are adequate to deserve
22 encouragement to proceed further.” Miller-El, 537 U.S. at 327; Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473,
23 484 (2000). While the petitioner is not required to prove the merits of his case, he must
24 demonstrate “something more than the absence of frivolity or the existence of mere good faith on
25 his . . . part.” Miller-El, 537 U.S. at 338.
26
In the present case, the Court finds that reasonable jurists would not find the Court’s
27 determination that Petitioner is not entitled to federal habeas corpus relief debatable, wrong, or
28 deserving of encouragement to proceed further. Petitioner has not made the required substantial
2
1 showing of the denial of a constitutional right. Accordingly, the Court hereby DECLINES to
2 issue a certificate of appealability.
3
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
4
1. The Findings and Recommendation issued May 15, 2015, is ADOPTED IN FULL;
5
2. The petition for writ of habeas corpus is DISMISSED as duplicative;
6
3. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to close the case; and
7
4. The Court DECLINES to issue a certificate of appealability.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
