ORDER
Pending before the court are the Petitioner’s pro se Motion Under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 To
Vacate, Set Aside, Or Correct Sentence (Docket No. 1) and supporting brief (Docket No. 16); an
Amended Motion To Vacate, Set Aside, Or Correct Sentence (Docket No. 20), filed by counsel
for the Petitioner; and the Government’s Responses (Docket No. 15, 19). For the reasons set
forth in the accompanying Memorandum, the Motion Under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 To Vacate, Set
Aside, Or Correct Sentence (Docket No. 1) and the Amended Motion To Vacate, Set Aside, Or
Correct Sentence (Docket No. 20) are DENIED, and this action is DISMISSED.
This Order shall constitute the judgment in this case pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 58.
If the Petitioner gives timely notice of an appeal from the court’s Memorandum and
Order, such notice shall be treated as an application for a certificate of appealability, 28 U.S.C. §
2253(c), which will not issue because the Petitioner has failed to make a substantial showing of
the denial of a constitutional right. Castro v. United States, 310 F.3d 900 (6th Cir. 2002).
It is so ORDERED.
Enter this 13th day of June 2017.
