ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

ROBERT BRYAN, District Judge

The Court, having reviewed the Report and Recommendation of Magistrate Judge Karen L. Strombom, objections to the Report and Recommendation, and the remaining record, does hereby find and ORDER:

(1) The Court adopts the Report and Recommendation (Dkt. 21);

(2) Petitioner objects to the Report and Recommendation, contending that because requested a Certificate of Appealability in the 9^th Circuit, he is entitled to relief pursuant to Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 23. Dkt. 22. As discussed in the Report and Recommendation, a transfer from one institution to another within the same district does not divest this Court of jurisdiction over Petitioner's claim, and does not violate FRAP 23;

(3) Petitioner's motion for preliminary injunction and temporary restraining order (Dkt. 15) is DENIED; and

(4) The Clerk is directed to send copies of this Order to Plaintiff, counsel for Defendants and to the Hon. Karen L. Strombom.
