1:06-cv-1454 OWW DLB HC

ORDER GRANTING PETITIONER’S

REQUEST TO VACATE ORDER

DENYING UNREQUESTED AND

UNNECESSARY CERTIFICATE OF

APPEALABILITY (COA) [DOC.

21] 

Petitioner correctly cites Ninth Circuit law that a

certificate of appealability is not required for the denial of

habeas corpus relief from the Board of Prison Terms’ denial of

his request for parole, because that decision is an

administrative decision regarding the execution of his sentence

according to Rosas v. Nielsen, 428 F.3d 1229, 1231-32 (9th Cir.

2005). Petitioner’s request to vacate the order denying a

certificate of appealability is GRANTED. 

Petitioner’s personal attack made on the Court alleging

bias, knowledge of the alleged falsity of the merits of the

denial of the petition, and further bias concerning other

unspecified cases, is appropriately referred to the Clerk of
