Description

James Coates filed an application for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Â§ 2254. The district court denied his application on 28 U.S.C. Â§ 2243 statute of limitations grounds, and he appeals that denial. As explained in Murray v. United States, 145 F.3d 1249, 1250-51 (11th Cir. 1998), we are limited in our review to the issue specified in the certificate of appealability. That issue is whether the time limit for filing Coates federal habeas application was tolled during the ninety-day period following the Georgia Supreme Courts refusal to review the state trial courts denial of his petition for collateral relief. In other words, did the section 2244(d)(1) calendar run during the ninety-day period in which Coates could have (but did not) file in the United States Supreme Court a petition for a writ of certiorari from the denial of state collateral relief.
