DANIEL D. DILLARD, § § Petitioner, § § v. § Civil Action No. 7:19-cv-00022-M-BP § DIRECTOR, TDCJ-CID, § § Respondent. §

ORDER ACCEPTING FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE After reviewing the objections to the Findings, Conclusions, and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge and conducting a de novo review of those parts of the Findings and Conclusions to which objections have been made, I am of the opinion that the Findings and Conclusions of the Magistrate Judge are correct, and they are accepted as the Findings and Conclusions of the Court. For the reasons stated in the Findings, Conclusions, and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge, the petition for habeas corpus filed pursuant to

is DENIED with prejudice, and the motion for a temporary restraining order and a temporary injunction, ECF No. 13, and motion to amend the original pleading with brief in support, ECF No. 36, likewise are DENIED. In accordance with Fed. R. App. P. 22(b) and

(c) and after considering the record in this case and the recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, petitioner is DENIED a Certificate of Appealability. The Court adopts and incorporates by reference the Magistrate Judge’s Findings, Conclusions and Recommendation in support of its finding that the petitioner has failed to show (1) that reasonable jurists would find this Court’s “assessment of the constitutional claims debatable or wrong,” or (2) that reasonable jurists would find “it debatable whether the petition states a valid claim of the denial of a constitutional right” and “debatable whether [this Court] was correct in its procedural ruling.” Slack v. McDaniel,

(2000). If the petitioner files a notice of appeal, he must pay the $505.00 appellate filing fee or submit a motion to proceed in forma pauperis and a properly signed certificate of inmate trust account. SIGNED this 13th day of November, 2019.
