Case No. 3:06 CV 1459 (N.D. Ohio Feb. 23, 2007)

Opinion

Case No. 3:06 CV 1459.

February 23, 2007

MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER

DAVID KATZ, District Judge

This action was transferred to the United States Magistrate for a Report and Recommendation. The Magistrate filed her Report and Recommendation on January 31, 2007. No objections have been filed and the Court has reviewed said Report and Recommendation, the findings and recommendations contained therein, and the record in this case. The findings and recommendations of the Magistrate are well taken and there are no legal points which would be arguable on their merits in an appeal of this case. Furthermore, the Court has determined sua sponte that no certificate of probable cause should issue in this case as any appeal would lack substantial merit.

It is therefore,

ORDERED, that the Report and Recommendation be, and hereby is, adopted as the Order of this Court.

FURTHER ORDERED that Respondent's motion to dismiss is granted (Doc. No. 7).

FURTHER ORDERED that under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a), an appeal of this case should not proceed in forma pauperis as it would not be taken in good faith.

FURTHER ORDERED that a motion for certificate of probable cause under 28 U.S.C. § 2253 is hereby denied sua sponte.
