v.
STATE OF UTAH, Respondent--Appellee.
No. 97-4096.
United States Court of Appeals, Tenth Circuit.
Nov. 6, 1997.
Before BALDOCK, MCKAY and LUCERO, Circuit Judges.
ORDER AND JUDGMENT*
Upon a review of the Application for Certificate of Appealability, and materials submitted by the petitioner in support thereof, it does not appear that petitioner has exhausted his state remedies. Accordingly, his Application for Certificate of Appealability is DENIED without prejudice to renewal when exhaustion has occurred in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 2254(b) and (c) and Picard v. Connor, 404 U.S. 270 (1971).
The mandate shall issue forthwith.
The case is unanimously ordered submitted without oral argument pursuant to Fed. R.App. P. 34(a) and 10th Cir. R. 34.1.9. This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. The court generally disfavors the citation of orders and judgments; nevertheless, an order and judgment may be cited under the terms and conditions of 10th Cir. R. 36.3
