IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOHN WARREN LYNCH,

Petitioner, No. 1:07-CV-00785 ALA HC

vs.

RICHARD SUBIA, Warden, ORDER

Respondent.

 /

Petitioner John Warren Lynch, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has timely filed a

notice of appeal of this court's March 11, 2008, denial of his application for a writ of habeas

corpus. Before petitioner can appeal this decision, a certificate of appealability must issue. 28

U.S.C. § 2253(c); FED. R. APP. P. 22(b).

A certificate of appealability may issue under 28 U.S.C. § 2253 “only if the applicant has

made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.” 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2). The

court must either issue a certificate of appealability indicating which issues satisfy the required

showing or must state the reasons why such a certificate should not issue. FED. R. APP. P. 22(b).
