REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS ON MOTION TO APPEAL IN
FORMA PAUPERIS
This habeas corpus case is before the Court on Petitioner’s Motion for Leave to Appeal in
forma pauperis (ECF No. 80).
On September 19, 2016, District Judge Barrett adopted the Magistrate Judge’s Report and
Recommendations on the Merits (ECF No. 45). Therein, the Magistrate Judge recommended that
the District Court “certify to the Sixth Circuit that any appeal would not be taken in objective good
faith.” Although no separate mention is made of this point in the Opinion and Order adopting the
Report, a District Judge reviewing a report and recommendations is not required to discuss each
point in the report, but only those to which specific objection is made. Thus Judge Barrett’s
adoption of the Report and Recommendations on the Merits renders the instant Motion moot. In
addition, Petition has made no showing that an appeal would be taken in objective good faith.
It is therefore respectfully recommended that the Motion be DENIED. Petitioner can

apply directly to the Sixth Circuit for leave to appeal in forma pauperis at the same time as he
applies for a certificate of appealability.
