ORDER DECLINING TO ISSUE
CERTIFICATE OF APPEALABILITY
18
19
The assigned magistrate judge issued Findings and Recommendations to dismiss the
20
petition as premature. (Doc. 6.) Those Findings and Recommendations were served upon all
21
parties and contained notice that any objections thereto were to be filed within 21 days after
22
service. On September 12, 2022, Petitioner filed objections to the Findings and
23
Recommendations. (Doc. 8.)
24
According to 28 U.S.C. § 636 (b)(1)(C), the Court has conducted a de novo review of the
25
case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, including Petitioner’s objections, the Court
26
concludes that the Magistrate Judge’s Findings and Recommendations are supported by the
27
record and proper analysis. Petitioner’s objections present no grounds for questioning the
28
Magistrate Judge’s analysis.

In addition, the Court declines to issue a certificate of appealability. A state prisoner
2
seeking a writ of habeas corpus has no absolute entitlement to appeal a district court’s denial of
3
his petition, and an appeal is only allowed in certain circumstances. Miller-El v. Cockrell, 537
4
U.S. 322, 335-336 (2003). The controlling statute in determining whether to issue a certificate of
5
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—
13
(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
14
(B) the final order in a proceeding under section 2255.
15

(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 when a petitioner makes a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.
21
28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2). To make a substantial showing, the petitioner must establish that
22
“reasonable jurists could debate whether (or, for that matter, agree that) the petition should have
23
been resolved in a different manner or that the issues presented were ‘adequate to deserve
24
encouragement to proceed further.’” Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484 (2000) (quoting
25
Barefoot v. Estelle, 463 U.S. 880, 893 (1983)).
26
The Court finds that Petitioner has not made the required substantial showing of the denial
27
of a constitutional right to justify the issuance of a certificate of appealability. Reasonable jurists
28
would not find the Court’s determination that Petitioner is not entitled to federal habeas corpus
2
1
relief debatable, wrong, or deserving of encouragement to proceed further. Thus, the Court
2
declines to issue a certificate of appealability. Accordingly,

The Findings and Recommendations issued on September 16, 2022, (Doc. 6), are
adopted in full.

The petition for writ of habeas corpus is dismissed.

The Clerk of Court is directed to enter judgment and close the case.
