MONICE MCKEE ANDERSON, § #01695823, § Petitioner, § § v . § No. 3:24-cv-02658-K (BT) § DIRECTOR, TDCJ-CID § Respondent. §

ORDER ACCEPTING FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE The United States Magistrate Judge made findings, conclusions, and a recommendation in this case. Petitioner filed no objections. The District Court reviewed the findings, conclusions, and recommendation for clear error. Finding no error, the Court ACCEPTS the findings, conclusions, and recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge. Petitioner’s habeas application will be dismissed by separate judgment for lack of jurisdiction pursuant to Rule 4 of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases. Petitioner’s motion for court-appointed counsel (Doc. 6) is DENIED as moot. Further, considering the record in this case and pursuant to Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 22(b), Rule 11(a) of the Rules Governing §§ 2254 and 2255 proceedings, and

(c), the Court DENIES a certificate of appealability. The Court adopts and incorporates by reference the magistrate judge’s findings, conclusions, and recommendation filed in this case 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 Petitioner does appeal, he must seek leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal or pay the $605.00 appellate filing fee. SO ORDERED. Signed April 15", 2025.
