IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

WESTERN DIVISION

COCHISE MILES, ADC #119012 PETITIONER

 

v. 4:06-CV-00862-WRW

LARRY NORRIS RESPONDENT

ORDER

Pending is Petitioner’s Motion for Certificate of Appealability (Doc. No. 19). 

The standard for evaluating a certificate of appealability petition is established in 

28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2): “A certificate of appealability may issue . . . only if the applicant has

made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.” The Eighth Circuit has

explained that “[a] substantial showing is a showing that issues are debatable among reasonable

jurists, a court could resolve the issues differently, or the issues deserve further proceedings.”1

Since Petitioner has not made a substantial showing of the denial of any constitutional

right, the Motion for Certificate of Appealability is DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED this 9th day of June, 2008.
