United States District Court

For the Northern District of California 

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

SAN FRANCISCO DIVISION 

MICHAEL PATRICK MCCLISH, 

 Petitioner, 

 

 v. 

RANDY GROUNDS, 

 Respondent. 

____________________________________/ 

No. C 11-01104 RS 

ORDER DENYING APPLICATION 

FOR A CERTIFICATE OF 

APPEALABILITY AND GRANTING 

REQUEST TO PROCEED IN FORMA 

PAUPERIS ON APPEAL 

The Court denied the petition for writ of habeas corpus, and entered judgment in favor of 

respondent in May 2013. The Court then denied petitioner’s motion to amend the judgment in 

December 2013. The Court now declines to issue a certificate of appealability. Reasonable 

jurists would not “find the district court’s assessment of the constitutional claims debatable or 

wrong.” Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484 (2000). Petitioner may seek a certificate of 

appealability from the Court of Appeals. 

Petitioner’s application to proceed in forma pauperis (“IFP”) on appeal is granted. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

Dated: January 6, 2014
