The petitioner, acting pro se, filed a Notice of Appeal (doc. #31) on March 16,

2006. The notice specifically states that the petitioner is appealing "Docket #30"

which is a Report and Recommendation from Magistrate Judge Anderson regarding

the petitioner's amended petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed pursuant to 28

U.S.C. § 2254.1

 Although the petitioner has not requested that a certificate of

appealability be issued, the Court has considered the issue pursuant to

Fed.R.App.P. 22(b)(1) and finds that the certificate should not be issued.

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(1)(A), an appeal may not be taken to the

court of appeals "from the final order in a habeas corpus proceeding in which the

detention complained of arises out of process issued by a State court" unless a court

issues of certificate of appealability. No court may issue a certificate of appealability

unless the applicant has made a substantial showing of the denial of constitutional

right. 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2).

The Court finds that no certificate of appealability should be issued because

the petitioner has not made, and cannot make, the necessary threshold showing

because he is improperly attempting to take an interlocutory appeal from a nonappealable order. 

Furthermore, the Court sua sponte certifies pursuant to Fed.R.App.P.

24(a)(3)(A) that the petitioner is not entitled to appeal in forma pauperis because the

appeal is procedurally improper and thus not taken in good faith. Therefore,

IT IS ORDERED that no certificate of appealability shall issue with regard to

the petitioner's Notice of [Interlocutory] Appeal (doc. #31) and that the petitioner is

not entitled to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis.

DATED this 12th day of September, 2006.
