July 20, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 5 FINAL REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION AND ORDER: It is RECOMMENDED that Whiting's petition #1 be DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION, and I further RECOMMEND that Whiting be DENIED a certificate of appealability. See Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484 (2000) (applying 28 U.S.C. 2253(c)). It appears that Whiting failed to pay the filing fee for this case (although he paid the filing fee for his prior 2254 case), so I ORDER him TO PAY $5 to the Clerk within fourteen days of the entry date of this Order. I caution Whiting that failure to comply with the order in this paragraph would constitute a separate and independent basis for dismissal of this case. See LR 41.3(A)(2), NDGa.I DIRECT the Clerk to terminate the referral of this case to me. Signed by Magistrate Judge Regina D Cannon on 7/20/23. (jra)
