DERREL ADAMS, Warden

Respondent. ORDER

Petitioner Gabriel Santiago, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has timely filed a notice

of appeal of this court's November 19, 2007, denial of his petition 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).

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. Fed. R. App. P. 22(b).
