Additionally, for the reasons stated by the Magistrate Judge, a certificate of appealability under Rule 11 of the Rules Governing 2254 Proceedings is DENIED.

1. On January 22, 2016, a member of the Magistrate Judge's staff received a telephone call from an individual identifying himself as Petitioner. Petitioner stated his objections had been returned to him as undeliverable. The staff member provided Petitioner with the court's address and instructed him to mail the objections as soon as possible. Over a month has passed since that conversation and no objections have been received.
