IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SEAN D. GADSON,

Petitioner,

 v.

DERRICK L. OLLISON, Warden, Ironwood

S.P.,

Respondent. /

No. C 06-5571CRB 

ORDER

The Court denied the petition for habeas corpus by Memorandum and Order dated

March 27, 2007. Now before the Court is petitioner’s request for issuance of a certificate of

appealability (“COA”). A judge shall grant a COA “only if the applicant has made a

substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.” 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2). The

certificate must indicate which issues satisfy this standard, see id. § 2253(c)(3), and the court

of appeals is limited to considering only those claims. See Hiivala v. Wood, 195 F.3d 1098,

1103 (9th Cir. 1999); Fuller v. Roe, 182 F.3d 699, 702-03 (9th Cir. 1999). 

The Court concludes that petitioner has made a “substantial showing” of denial of a

constitutional right with respect to both related claims in his petition.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: April 4, 2007
