No. C 05-1966 CRB (PR)

ORDER

(Doc # 9)

Petitioner has filed a notice of appeal and request for a certificate of

appealability ("COA") pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c) and Federal Rule of

Appellate Procedure 22(b), following the court's February 12, 2007 order

denying on the merits his petition for a writ of habeas corpus.

A COA (doc # 9) is denied as unnecessary. The Ninth Circuit has made

clear that a state prisoner challenging a parole board's administrative decision to

deny his request for parole need not obtain a COA. See Rosas v. Nielsen, 428

F.3d 1229, 1232 (9th Cir. 2005).

The clerk shall process the appeal. 

SO ORDERED.

DATED: March 15, 2007 CHARLES R. BREYER
