WESTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA
SHREVEPORT DIVISION

GARY A. BAILEY

CIVIL ACTION NO. 17-0597

VERSUS

JUDGE S. MAURICE HICKS, JR.

DARRELL VANNOY, ET AL.

MAGISTRATE JUDGE PEREZ-MONTES

JUDGMENT
For the reasons assigned in the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate
Judge previously filed herein, and having thoroughly reviewed the record, no written
objections having been filed, and concurring with the findings of the Magistrate Judge
under the applicable law;
IT IS ORDERED that Petitioner Gary A. Bailey’s (“Bailey”) Motion to Withdraw
Habitual Offender Case (Record Document 7) be GRANTED, and that this lawsuit
be

DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure

41(a)(1)(A).
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Bailey’s Voluntary Motion to Dismiss (Record
Document 8), Voluntary Motion to Dismiss (Record Document 10), and deficient Motion to
Proceed In Forma Pauperis (Record Document Doc. 2) be DENIED AS MOOT.
Rule 11 of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Proceedings for the U.S. District
Courts requires the district court to issue or deny a certificate of appealability when it enters
a final order adverse to the applicant. The court, after considering the record in this case
and the standard set forth in 28 U.S.C. Section 2253, denies a certificate of appealability

because the applicant has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional
right.
THUS DONE AND SIGNED at Shreveport, Louisiana, this the 12th day of July,
2017.
