Russell v. Kansas, No. 11-3156 (10th Cir. 2011)
Annotate this Case
Appellant Julian Russell petitioned the Tenth Circuit for a certificate of appealablity (COA) to challenge a district court's denial of his application for the writ of habeas corpus. Appellant filed an application for habeas relief to challenge his pretrial detention at the Marion County Jail in Kansas. The district court dismissed his application, concluding abstention was appropriate based on the doctrine enunciated in "Younger v. Harris," (401 U.S. 37 (1971)). The court also concluded that Appellant failed to exhaust his state remedies. Upon review of Appellant's COA application, appellate brief, and district court record, the Tenth Circuit concluded that Appellant was not entitled to a COA. The Court denied his request for a COA and dismissed his appeal.
