IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ANTHONY BARRAZA, No. CIV S-02-1873-FCD-CMK-P

Petitioner, 

vs. ORDER

JILL BROWN, 

Respondent.

 /

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, brings this petition for a writ of

habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Pending before the court is petitioner’s request for

a certificate of appealability (Doc. 32), filed on February 16, 2006. 

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has timely filed a notice of appeal of

this court's January 19, 2006, denial of his application for a writ of habeas corpus. Before

petitioner can appeal this decision, a certificate of appealability must issue. 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c);

Fed. R. App. P. 22(b). A certificate of appealability may issue under 28 U.S.C. § 2253 “only if

the applicant has made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.” 28 U.S.C.

§ 2253(c)(2). 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.
