May 11, 2018	Filing 30 ORDER ADOPTING R&R for 29 Report and Recommendation. When a petitioner does not file any objections, the Court reviews an R&R for clear error. See Rose v. Rivera, No. 08-CV-6027, 2011 WL 3874718, at *1 (S.D.N.Y. Sept. 2, 2011). The Court has re viewed the R&R and finds no error, clear or otherwise. The Court therefore adopts the R&R in its entirety and denies Petitioner's writ of habeas corpus. Because Petitioner has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional rig ht, a certificate of appealability will not issue. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2); Lucidore v. NY State Div. of Parole, 209 F.3d 107, 111-12 (2d Cir. 2000). In addition, the Court certifies, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), that any appeal f rom this Order would not be taken in good faith. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 445 (1962) ("We consider a defendant's good faith... demonstrated when he seeks appellate review of any issue not frivolous."); Burda Media I nc. v. Blumenberg, 731 F. Supp. 2d 321, 322-23 (S.D.N.Y. 2010) (citing Coppedge and noting that an appeal may not be taken in forma pauperis if the trial court certifies in writing that it is not taken in good faith). The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to enter a judgment in favor of Respondent and to close this case. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Kenneth M. Karas on 5/10/2018) (mml)
