STEARNS, D.J.
I agree with Magistrate Judge Kelley’s succinct analysis and her
conclusion that petitioner James Cameron has failed to exhaust the claims
in his petition as required by the Anti-Terrorism and Effective Dearth
Penalty Act, 28 U.S.C. §2254(b)(1)(a), and, moreover, that no exception to
the exhaustion requirement applies.1
Consequently, her Recommendation is ADOPTED and the petition for

1 To date, Cameron has not filed any Objections to the Report and
Recommendation.

habeas relief is DISMISSED. Any request for the issuance of a Certificate of
Appealability pursuant to 28 U.S.C. ' 2253 is DENIED, the court seeing no
meritorious or substantial basis that would support an interlocutory appeal.
SO ORDERED.
/s/ Richard G. Stearns
