Date Filed Document Text
March 26, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 24 ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS: This Court has carefully reviewed the state record in light of Mr. Ward's claims and has given such consideration to those claims as t he limited scope of its review in a habeas corpus proceeding permits. Having applied the appropriate standard of review, and having considered the pleadings and the record, Mr. Ward's petition for writ of habeas corpus must be denied. Judgment consistent with this Entry shall now issue. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 22(b), Rule 11(a) of the Rules Governing § 2254 procee dings, and 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c), the Court finds that the petitioner has failed to show (1) that reasonable jurists would find this court's "assessment of the constitutional claims debatable or wrong," or (2) that reasonable jurists would find "it debatable whether the petition states a valid claim of the denial of a constitutional right" and "whether [this court ] was correct in its procedural ruling." Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484 (2000). The Court therefore denies a certificate of appealability. See Order for additional information. Signed by Judge William T. Lawrence on 3/26/2018.(SWM)
