Case No. 4:13CV01263 SNLJ
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter is before me on the petition for writ of habeas corpus filed by Petitioner
Darren Deterich Robinson. I referred this matter to United States Magistrate Judge Shirley P.
Mensah, for a report and recommendation on all dispositive matters pursuant to 28 U.S.C. '
636(b). On July 14, 2016, Judge Mensah filed her recommendation that Robinson=s habeas
petition should be dismissed.
Objections to Judge Mensah’s Report and Recommendation were filed. After careful
consideration, I will adopt and sustain the thorough reasoning of Judge Mensah and deny
Robinson=s habeas petition for the reasons stated in the Report and Recommendation dated July
14, 2016.
I have also considered whether to issue a certificate of appealability. To grant a certificate
of appealability, the Court must find a substantial showing of the denial of a federal
constitutional right. See Tiedeman v. Benson, 122 F.3d 518, 522 (8th Cir. 1997). A substantial
showing is a showing that issues are debatable among reasonable jurists, a Court could resolve
the issues differently, or the issues deserve further proceedings. Cox v. Norris, 133 F.3d 565, 569
(8th Cir. 1997) (citing Flieger v. Delo, 16 F.3d 878, 882-83 (8th Cir. 1994). Because Robinson
has not made such a showing in this case, I will not issue a certificate of appealability.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Judge Shirley P. Mensah’s Report and
Recommendation, [ECF 18], filed on July 14, 2016 is adopted and sustained in its entirety.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner Darren Deterich Robinson=s Petition for
Writ of Habeas Corpus, [ECF 1], is DENIED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Court will not issue a certificate of appealability.
A separate Judgment in accordance with this Memorandum and Order is entered this
same date.
Dated this 21st day of September, 2016.
