No. 4:17-CV-1498 ACL

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter is before the Court on petitioner's post-dismissal motion for appointment of
counsel. As this habeas corpus action was dismissed for lack of jurisdiction on May 15, 2017
and petitioner is not entitled to the appointment of appellate counsel, the Court will deny
petitioner's request for counsel as moot.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that petitioner's motion for appointment of counsel [Doc.
#6] is DENIED AS MOOT.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that no certificate of appealability shall issue.
Dated this 21st day of June, 2017.
