Gotshall v. Bracy, No. 5:2018cv01608 - Document 31 (N.D. Ohio 2019)

Court Description: Memorandum Opinion and Order. This matter comes before the Court upon the Report and Recommendation of Magistrate Judge Kathleen B. Burke. (ECF # 27 ). The Report and Recommendation, issued on October 29, 2019 is hereby ADOPTED by this Court. Petitioner's Federal Habeas Corpus Petition under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (ECF # 1 ) is therefore DENIED. For the reasons thoroughly discussed in the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, a reasonable jurist could not conclude that this Court's assessment of Petitioner's claim is debatable or wrong. Accordingly, the Court declines to issue a certificate of appealability. IT IS SO ORDERED. Judge Donald C. Nugent on 12/3/2019. (W,CM)
