19 CIVIL 5964 (GHW)
05-06-2022
MERLIN MORENO-GRATINI, Plaintiff, v. THOMAS STICHT, Defendant.
JUDGMENT
It is hereby ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED: That for the reasons stated in the Court's Order dated May 5, 2022, the R&R is adopted with respect to Petitioner's petition for a writ of habeas corpus. For the reasons articulated in the R&R, Petitioner Merlin Moreno-Gratini's petition for a writ of habeas corpus is denied. The Court certifies under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from the order would not be taken in good faith, and therefore in forma pauperis status is denied for the purpose of an appeal. Cf. Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962) (holding that an appellant demonstrates good faith when he seeks review of a nonfrivolous issue). Judgment is entered for Respondent; accordingly, the case is closed.
