PENNSYLVANIA BOARD OF
PAROLE, et al.,
Respondents.
ORDER
AND NOW, this 20th day of May 2025, in accordance with the
accompanying Memorandum, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
1. Petitioner Ronald K. Isenberg, Jr.’s petition for a writ of habeas
corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 is DENIED.
2. A certificate of appealability shall not issue, as Isenberg has not made
a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right, see 28
U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2), or that “jurists of reason would find it debatable”
whether this Court’s procedural rulings are correct, Slack v.
McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484 (2000).
3. In light of the foregoing paragraphs, Isenberg’s motion (Doc. 11) to
appoint counsel is DENIED.
