Robert A. Archuleta, Petitioner--appellant, v. Robert Furlong; Attorney General of the State of Colorado,respondents--appellees, 156 F.3d 1243 (10th Cir. 1998)
Annotate this CasePetitioner seeks a certificate of appealability, see 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c), in order to appeal the denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas petition, in which he sought relief from sentences imposed in Colorado after he was twice convicted for aggravated robbery. The federal district court, accepting the magistrate judge's report and recommendation, concluded that petitioner had failed to exhaust the state remedies available to him. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254(b) (1).
After careful consideration of the record, we DENY petitioner's application for a certificate of appealability for substantially the reasons stated by the district court in its order denying habeas relief dated February 27, 1998. We therefore DISMISS this appeal.
The mandate shall issue forthwith.
