D. K. SISTO, warden, Respondent. / No. C 08-3593 MHP (pr) ORDER DENYING CERTIFICATE OF APPEALABILITY Petitioner has filed an application for issuance of certificate of appealability following the dismissal of his habeas petition as untimely. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c); Fed. R. App. P. 22(b). The court construes the application also to be a notice of appeal. See Tinsley v. Borg, 895 F.2d 520, 523 (9th Cir. 1990) (treating timely pro se motion for a certificate of probable cause as a timely notice of appeal). The application for a certificate of appealability is DENIED because petitioner has not demonstrated that "jurists of reason would find it debatable whether the petition states a valid claim of the denial of a constitutional right and that jurists of reason would find it debatable whether the district court was correct in its procedural ruling." Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484 (2000). The clerk shall forward to the court of appeals the case file with this order. See United States v. Asrar, 116 F.3d 1268, 1270 (9th Cir. 1997). IT IS SO ORDERED. DATED: March 30, 2010 Marilyn Hall Patel United States District Judge
