IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

WESTERN DIVISION

JUWANN HAYES PETITIONER

VS. 4:16-CV-598-BRW-BD

WENDY KELLEY, Director, 

Arkansas Department of Correction, and 

LESLIE RUTLEDGE, Attorney General of Arkansas RESPONDENTS

ORDER

The Court has carefully reviewed the Recommended Disposition filed by Magistrate

Judge Beth Deere. The parties have not filed objections. The Court concludes that the

Recommendation should be, and hereby is, approved and adopted as this Court’s findings in all

respects. 

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.

Petitioner Juwann Hayes’s petition for writ of habeas corpus (#2) is DENIED and

DISMISSED, without prejudice. 

IT IS SO ORDERED, this 14th day of February, 2017.

/s/ Billy Roy Wilson
