ORDER DENYING CERTIFICATE OF APPEALABILITY

This matter is before the court on Victor David Bracamontes-Elizondo’s pro se request for a certifícate of appealability (“COA”). Bracamontes-Elizondo seeks a COA so he can appeal the district court’s dismissal, on timeliness grounds, of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(1)(A) (providing no appeal may be taken from “a final order in a habeas corpus proceeding in which the detention complained of arises out of process issued by a State court” without first obtaining a COA); id. § 2244(d)(1)(A) (setting out a one-year statute of limitations on § 2254 petitions running from the date on which the conviction became final). Because Bra-camontes-Elizondo has not “made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right,” id. § 2253(c)(2), this court denies his request for a COA and dismisses this appeal.

In a detailed Report and Recommendation, a magistrate judge concluded Braca-montes-Elizondo’s Oklahoma state conviction for Aggravated Trafficking in Illegal Drugs became final on August 2, 2013. In so doing, the magistrate judge thoroughly explained why Bracamontes-Elizondo was in error in asserting his state court conviction became final at some later date under the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 2244(d)(1)(A)-(C). The magistrate judge further recommended that the district court deny Braeamontes-Elizondo’s request for statutory tolling, id. § 2244(d)(2), and equitable tolling, Lawrence v. Florida, 549 U.S. 327, 127 S.Ct. 1079, 166 L.Ed.2d 924 (2007). Upon de novo review, the district court adopted the Report and Recommendation and dismissed Bracamontes-Elizondo’s § 2254 ha-beas petition with prejudice.

The granting of a COA is a jurisdictional prerequisite to Bracamontes-Elizondo’s appeal from the dismissal of his § 2254 petition. Miller-El v. Cockrell, 537 U.S. 322, 336, 123 S.Ct. 1029, 154 L.Ed.2d 931 (2003). To be entitled to a COA, he must make “a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.” 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2). To make the- requisite showing, he must demonstrate “reasonable jurists could debate whether (or, for that matter, agree that) the petition should have been resolved in a different manner or that the issues presented were adequate to deserve encouragement to proceed further.” Miller-El, 537 U.S. at 336, 123 S.Ct. 1029 (quotations omitted). When a district court dismisses a § 2254 motion on procedural grounds, a petitioner is entitled to a COA only if he shows both that reasonable jurists would find it debatable whether he had stated a valid constitutional claim and debatable whether the district court’s procedural ruling was correct. Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484-85, 120 S.Ct. 1595, 146 L.Ed.2d 542 (2000). In evaluating whether Bracamontes-Elizondo has satisfied his burden, this court undertakes “a preliminary, though not definitive, consideration of the [legal] framework” applicable to each of his claims. Miller-El, 537 U.S. at 338, 123 S.Ct. 1029. Athough Bra-camontes-Elizondo need not demonstrate his appeal will succeed to be entitled to a COA, he must “prove something more than the absence of frivolity or the existence of mere good faith.” Id. (quotations omitted). As a further overlay on this standard, we review for abuse of discretion the district court’s decision that Bracamontes-Elizondo is not entitled to have the limitations period set out in § 2244(d)(1) equitably tolled. See Burger v. Scott, 317 F.3d 1133, 1141 (10th Cir. 2003).

Having undertaken a review of Braca-montes-Elizondo’s appellate filings, the magistrate judge’s Report and Recommendation, the district court’s Order, and the entire record before this court pursuant to the framework set out by the Supreme Court in Miller-El and Slack, we conclude Bracamontes-Elizondo is not entitled to a COA. The district court’s resolution of Bracamontes-Elizondo’s § 2254 motion is not deserving of further proceedings or subject to a different resolution on appeal. In so concluding, this court has nothing to add to the cogent analyses set out in the magistrate judge’s Report and Recommendation and. the district court’s Order of Dismissal. Accordingly, this court DENIES Bracamontes-Elizondo’s request for a COA and DISMISSES this appeal.
