RYAN DANIEL MASTERS,

Petitioner,

11

vs.

12

Case No. 2:13-cv-01692-APG-NJK

CHARLOTTE COLLINS, et al.,

13

ORDER

Respondents.

14
15

Petitioner has submitted a petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241

16

(#1). He presents multiple claims that his federal custody is illegal. Petitioner is a defendant in a

17

criminal case brought before this court, case number 2:12-cr-00145-MMD-GWF. He was found

18

guilty in a jury trial. Subsequent to filing the petition, petitioner was convicted and the matter is

19

now on appeal. The issues that he raises in the petition are issues that he needs to raise on appeal or

20

in a motion attacking his sentence pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255.
To the extent that a certificate of appealability is necessary, reasonable jurists would not find

21
22

the court’s conclusion to be debatable or wrong, and the court will not issue a certificate of

23

appealability.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the petition for a writ of habeas corpus (Dkt. #1) is

24
25

DENIED. The clerk of the court shall enter judgment accordingly.
