IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SERGIO ALVAREZ,

Petitioner,

 v.

ROBERT HOREL, Acting Warden,

Respondent. _________________________________________/

No. C 06-4938 SBA (PR)

ORDER DENYING PETITIONER'S

REQUEST FOR A COA

(Docket no. 24)

Petitioner has filed notice of appeal and a request for a certificate of appealability under 28

U.S.C. § 2253(c) and Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 22(b) following the Court's dismissal of

his petition for a writ of habeas corpus as untimely.

Petitioner's request for a certificate of appealability (docket no. 24) is DENIED. 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).

Petitioner's declaration in support of his application shows that he qualifies to proceed in

forma pauperis. His application (docket no. 27) is GRANTED. 

The Clerk of the Court shall forward to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals the case file with

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

This Order terminates Docket nos. 24 and 27.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: 3/8/10 _______________________________
