Kurt Washington v. James Yates
Kurt Washington v. James Yates
Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
California state prisoner Kurt Washington appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas petition challenging the loss of work-time credits following a prison disciplinary proceeding. We dismiss.
Washington contends that the 30-day loss of work-time credits assessed following his prison disciplinary conviction violated his constitutional rights. After briefing was completed in this case, this court held that a certificate of appealability is required to challenge an administrative decision. See Hayward v. Marshall, 603 F.3d 546, 554-55 (9th Cir. 2010) (en banc). Because Washington has not has made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right, we decline to certify his claims. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c).
All pending motions are denied as moot.
DISMISSED.
