UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA
SHREVEPORT DIVISION
CAMERON C. CHRISTAW

CIVIL ACTION NO. 19-1381-P

VERSUS

JUDGE FOOTE

STATE OF LOUISIANA

MAGISTRATE JUDGE HORNSBY
JUDGMENT

For the reasons stated in the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge
previously filed herein, and after an independent review of the record, and noting the lack
of written objections filed by Petitioner and determining that the findings are correct under
the applicable law;
IT IS ORDERED that Petitioner's application for writ of habeas corpus is DENIED
and that this action is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
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.
Jurists of reason would not find it debatable whether the petition states a valid claim of the
denial of a constitutional right and whether this court was correct in its procedural ruling.
See Slack v. McDaniel, 120 S. Ct. 1595, 1604 (2000).
