CERTIFICATE OF APPEALABILITY A final order adverse to the applicant having been filed in the captioned habeas corpus case, in which the detention complained of arises out of a proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241, the Court, considering the record in the case and the requirements of 28 U.S.C. § 2253, Rule 22(b) of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure, and Rule 11(a) of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases in the United States District Courts, hereby finds that a Certificate of Appealability should not issue. The applicant has failed to show “that jurists of reason would find it debatable whether the petition states a valid claim of the denial of a constitutional right and that jurists of reason would find it debatable whether [this Court] was correct in its procedural ruling.” Slack v.
