STEVEN MCDOWELL v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (2017)

United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.

STEVEN T. MCDOWELL, Petitioner-Appellant, v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Respondent-Appellee.

No. 16-2705

Decided: January 23, 2017

Before WILLIAM J. BAUER, Circuit Judge DIANE S. SYKES, Circuit Judge

ORDER

Steven McDowell has filed a notice of appeal from the denial of his motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255, which we construe as an application for a certificate of appealability. This court has reviewed the final order of the district court and the record on appeal. We find no substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2).

Accordingly, the request for a certificate of appealability is DENIED.
