ORDER DENYING

CERTIFICATE OF

APPEALABILITY

Petitioner has filed a notice of appeal which the court also construes as a

request for a certificate of appealability under 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c) and Federal

Rule of Appellate Procedure 22(b). 

A certificate of appealability is DENIED because petitioner has not made

"a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right." 28 U.S.C. § 

2253(c)(2). Petitioner has not demonstrated that "jurists of reason would find it

debatable whether the petition states a valid claim of the denial of a constitutional

right and that jurists of reason would find it debatable whether the district court

was correct in its procedural ruling.” Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484

(2000).

The clerk shall forward to the court of appeals the case file with this order. 

See United States v. Asrar, 116 F.3d 1268, 1270 (9th Cir. 1997). 

SO ORDERED.

DATED: 08/16/07
