IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ROBERT S. HUDSON,

Petitioner,

 v.

A. P. KANE, Warden,

Respondent.

 /

No. C 04-02232 SI

ORDER DENYING REQUEST FOR

CERTIFICATE OF APPEALABILITY 

On September 8, 2005, petitioner filed a request for a certificate of appealability with this Court.

Based on the Ninth Circuit’s recent decision in Rosas v. Nielsen, 428 F.3d 1229 (9th Cir. 2005), the Court

DENIES the request as unnecessary. 

In Rosas, the Ninth Circuit held that, where a petitioner’s habeas claim challenges a Board of Prison

Terms administrative decision, he need not obtain a certificate of appealability in order to appeal the district

court’s decision. See Rosas, 428 F.3d at 1231-32. Because the facts of Rosas are substantially similarto the

facts ofthis case, the Court concludes that petitioner need not obtain a certificate of appealability and DENIES

petitioner’s request.

Petitioner’s request for a certificate of appealability isDENIED.[Docket#29] The Clerk shall forward

the case file to the court of appeals with this order.

 IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: December 20, 2005
