TROY DALE BURTON v. THOMAS STRATTON, ET AL.

JUDGE S. MAURICE HICKS, JR.

JUDGE S. MAURICE HICKS, JR.

MAGISTRATE JUDGE HORNSBY JUDGMENT

For the reasons stated in the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge previously filed herein, and after an independent review of the record, and noting the lack of written objections filed by Plaintiff and determining that the findings are correct under the applicable law;

IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff's civil rights complaint seeking monetary damages and injunctive relief for his allegedly unconstitutional parole revocation be DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE as frivolous under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e) until such time as the Heck conditions are met and that Plaintiff's request for habeas relief be DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE for failure to exhaust state court remedies.

Rule 11 of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Proceedings for the U.S. District Courts requires the district court to issue or deny a certificate of appealability when it enters a final order adverse to the applicant. The Court, after considering the record in this case and the standard set forth in 28 U.S.C. Section 2253, denies a certificate of appealability because the applicant has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.

THUS DONE AND SIGNED, in chambers, in Shreveport, Louisiana, on this the 2nd day of December, 2016.
