No. 96-2384.
United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.
Submitted Sept. 20, 1996.
Decided Dec. 6, 1996.

Daniel Alan Morris and Michael G. Heavi-can, U.S. Attorneys, Omaha, NE, for appel-lee.
Before McMILLIAN, Circuit Judge, HENLEY, Senior Circuit Judge, and MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judge.

Opinion:
MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judge.
A certificate of appealability is not available to the petitioner in this case because petitioner is not asserting the denial of a constitutional right. See Hohn v. United States, 99 F.3d 892 (8th Cir.1996) (per curiam). We are therefore obligated to deny the certificate.
