IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS 

PINE BLUFF DIVISION

CHARLES EDWARD JONES, SR. PETITIONER

ADC #144544

v. NO. 5:15CV00200 JLH/BD

WENDY KELLEY, Director, 

Arkansas Department of Correction RESPONDENT

ORDER

The Court has reviewed the Recommended Disposition (“Recommendation”) filed by

Magistrate Judge Beth Deere. In addition, the Court has considered Jones’s objections to the

Recommendation and has reviewed de novo those portions of the record relevant to Jones’s

objections. After careful consideration, this Court adopts the Recommendation as its own. Charles

Edward Jones, Sr.’s petition for writ of habeas corpus is denied and dismissed without prejudice. 

Document #2.

When entering a final order adverse to a habeas corpus petitioner, the Court must issue or

deny a certificate of appealability. Rule 11 of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases. A

certificate of appealability may issue only if a petitioner has made a substantial showing of the

denial of a constitutional right. 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(1)-(2). In this case, there is no basis for this

court to issue a certificate of appealability. Accordingly, a certificate of appealability is denied.

IT IS SO ORDERED this 28th day of July, 2015.
