LAURIE SMITH CAMP, Senior District Judge.
This matter is before the Court on the Defendant's Notice of Appeal, ECF 141, which the Court will also construe as a Motion for Certificate of Appealability, and the Clerk's memorandum addressing the Defendant's ability to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis, ECF No. 141. The Defendant seeks to appeal from the Memorandum and Order, ECF 140, denying his Motion for Clarification, ECF No. 138, and Motion to Correct Clerical Error, No. 139. Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 24 governs the Defendant's ability to proceed in forma pauperis in this appeal. Before the Defendant may appeal the denial of his § 2255 motion, however, a "Certificate of Appealability" must issue. Pursuant to the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1214 ("AEDPA"), the right to appeal the denial of a § 2255 motion is governed by the certificate of appealability requirements of 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c). 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2) provides that a certificate of appealability may issue only if the applicant has made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right:
28 U.S.C. § 2253(c).
A "substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right" requires a demonstration "that reasonable jurists could debate whether (or, for that matter, agree that) the petition should have been resolved in a different manner or that the issues presented were `adequate to deserve encouragement to proceed further.'" Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484 (2000) (quoting Barefoot v. Estelle, 463 U.S. 880, 893 & n.4 (1983)).
The issues raised in the Motions were carefully considered. For the reasons set forth in the Court's previously issued Memorandum and Order, ECF 140, denying the Defendant's Motions, the Court concludes that the Defendant has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right as required by 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c).
IT IS ORDERED:
