IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS 

PINE BLUFF DIVISION

WALTER LEE WALTON, PETITIONER

ADC #098357

v. CASE NO. 5:14CV00205 BSM

RAY HOBBS, Director, RESPONDENT

Arkansas Department of Correction

ORDER

The recommended disposition filed by United States Magistrate Judge Joe J. Volpe

has been reviewed. No objections have been filed. After careful consideration, the

recommended disposition should be, and hereby is, approved and adopted in its entirety in

all respects. Accordingly, Walter Lee Walton’s petition for writ of habeas corpus [Doc. No.

2] is denied and dismissed with prejudice. 

When entering a final order adverse to a habeas corpus petitioner, a certificate of

appealability must be issued or denied. See Rule 11 of the Rules Governing Section 2554

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). As no such

showing has been made, a certificate of appealability is denied.

IT IS SO ORDERED this 13th day of January 2015.
