United States District Court

For the Northern District of California

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SYLVESTER STRONG,

Petitioner,

v.

BEN CURRY, warden,

Respondent. /

No. C 07-4927 SI (pr)

ORDER DENYING CERTIFICATE

OF APPEALABILITY

Petitioner has filed a notice of appeal from the order denying his petition for writ of

habeas corpus that challenged a parole denial decision. Under the recent decision of Hayward

v. Marshall, — F.3d —, 2010 WL 1664977, *5 (9th Cir. Apr. 22, 2010), a petitioner must obtain

a certificate of appealability to appeal such a decision. 

A certificate of appealability will not issue because petitioner has not made "a substantial

showing of the denial of a constitutional right." 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2). This is not a case in

which "reasonable jurists would find the district court’s assessment of the constitutional claims

debatable or wrong.” Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484 (2000). 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: May 28, 2010
