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.

For the reasons set forth in the Magistrate Judge’s August

31, 2005, Findings and Recommendations, Petitioner has not made a

substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right. 

Accordingly, a Certificate of Appealability should not issue in

this action.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: December 16, 2005
