ORDER
This matter is before the Court pursuant to the Order of General Reference in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio Western Division to United States
Magistrate Judge Stephanie K. Bowman. Pursuant to such reference, the Magistrate Judge
reviewed the pleadings and filed with this Court on February 2, 2017 a Report and
Recommendation (Doc. 9). Subsequently, the petitioner filed objections to such Report and
Recommendation (Docs. 13 and 14) which are the same.
The Court has reviewed the comprehensive findings of the Magistrate Judge and
considered de novo all of the filings in this matter. Upon consideration of the foregoing, the
Court does determine that such Recommendation should be adopted.
Petitioner’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §2254 (Doc. 3) is
DENIED with prejudice.
A certificate of appealaiblity will not issue with respect to any of petitioner’s time-barred
claims because under the first prong of the applicable two-part standard enunciated in Slack v.
McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484-85 (2000), “jurists of reason” will not find it debatable whether the
Court is correct in its procedural ruling that such claims are subject to dismissal on statute of
limitations grounds.
With respect to any application by petitioner to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis, the
Court will certify pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §1915(a)(3) that an appeal of any Order adopting the
Report and Recommendation will not be taken in “good faith,” therefore DENYING petitioner
leave to appeal in forma pauperis upon a showing of financial necessity. See Fed. R. App. P.
24(a); Kincade v. Sparkman, 117 F.3d 949, 952 (6th Cir. 1997).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
