Apr. 10, 1996) ( It is incumbent upon litigants to inform the clerk of address changes, for it is manifest that communications between the clerk and the parties or their counsel will be conducted principally by mail. ). 1 Accordingly; it is hereby: ORDERED, that the Report-Recommendation (Dkt. No. 17) is APPROVED and ADOPTED in its ENTIRETY; and it is further ORDERED, that the Petition for a writ of habeas corpus (Dkt. No. 1) is DENIED; and it is further ORDERED, that because the Court finds Petitioner has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2), no certificate of appealability should issue with respect to any of Petitioner s claims; and it is further ORDERED, that the Clerk serve a copy of this Order on all parties.
