ORDER

WILLIAM McCORKLE, District Judge

Petitioner's Request for a Certificate of Appealability¹ (Doc. No. 39, filed Jan. 22, 2008) is DENIED. This Court should grant an application for certificate of appealability only if the Petitioner makes "a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right." 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2). Petitioner has failed to make a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.

1 Petitioner's Notice of Appeal (Doc. No. 38, filed Jan. 22, 2008) has been construed as requesting a certificate of appealability. See Edwards v. United States, 114 F.3d 1083, 1084 (11th Cir. 1997).

DONE AND ORDERED at Orlando, Florida.
