IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JIMMIE LEE JACKSON, CASE NO. CV-F-04-5145 AWI SMS HC

Petitioner, ORDER DENYING PETITIONER’S

REQUEST FOR CERTIFICATE OF 

vs. APPEALABILITY

G.J. GIURBINO, [Doc. 28]

Respondent.

 /

Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition for writ of habeas corpus pursuant

to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. 

On March 29, 2005, the Court dismissed Petitioner’s petition for writ of habeas corpus as time

barred by the one-year statute of limitations. 28 U.S.C. § 2244(d)(1) and judgment was entered on the

same date. On July 12, 2005, Petitioner filed a notice of appeal along with a request for certificate of

appealability.

 The controlling statute in determining whether to issue a certificate of appealability is 28 U.S.C.

§ 2253, which provides as follows:

 (a) In a habeas corpus proceeding or a proceeding under section 2255 before a 

district judge, the final order shall be subject to review, on appeal, by the court 

of appeals for the circuit in which the proceeding is held.

 (b) There shall be no right of appeal from a final order in a proceeding to test the 

validity of a warrant to remove to another district or place for commitment or trial

a person charged with a criminal offense against the United States, or to test the 

validity of such person’s detention pending removal proceedings.

 (c) (1) Unless a circuit justice or judge issues a certificate of appealability, an 

appeal may not be taken to the court of appeals from–

 (A) the final order in a habeas corpus proceeding in which the 

detention complained of arises out of process issued by a State 

court; or

 (B) the final order in a proceeding under section 2255.

 (2) A certificate of appealability may issue under paragraph (1) only if the 

applicant has made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.

 (3) The certificate of appealability under paragraph (1) shall indicate which 

specific issue or issues satisfy the showing required by paragraph (2).

In the present case, the Court finds that Petitioner has not made the required substantial showing

of the denial of a constitutional right. Accordingly, Petitioner’s request for a certificate of appealability

is DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
