In adopting Judge Gorenstein's recommendation, the Court found that the "Petitioner has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right, [and, therefore,] a certificate of appealability will not issue" pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 2253(c)(2).

For substantially the same reasons as stated in Docket Entry No. 18, the Court denies Petitioner a certificate of appealability from its order adopting Judge Gorenstein's Report and Recommendation and denying his Rule 60 motion.
