UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ERIC CHARLES RODNEY KNAPP,

Petitioner,

v.

RALPH DIAZ, CDCR Secretary,

Respondent.

No. 2:19-cv-02066 TLN-GGH

ORDER

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an application for a writ of habeas 

corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. The matter was referred to a United States Magistrate 

Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.

On November 4, 2019, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations herein 

which were served on Petitioner and which contained notice to Petitioner that any objections to 

the findings and recommendations were to be filed within fourteen days. (ECF No. 6.) Petitioner 

has filed objections to the findings and recommendations. (ECF No. 9.)

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 304, this 

Court has conducted a de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the 

Court finds the findings and recommendations to be supported by the record and by proper 

analysis.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The findings and recommendations filed November 4, 2019, are adopted in full;

prejudice to its refiling with a copy of an order from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals 

authorizing petitioner to file a successive petition; and

3. The Court declines to issue the certificate of appealability referenced in 28 U.S.C. § 

2253.
