Question Presented (from Petition)

Where the COA determination under § 2253(c) requires an overview of the claims in the habeas petition and a general assessment of their merits, did the court of appeals err when it denied Petitioner's COA application by merely reciting the requirements for granting a COA under § 2253(c)(2) that a substantial showing of a denial of a constitutional right be demonstrated?

Did the Second Circuit frivolous reviews of Petitioner's submissions violate the Due Process Clause of the Fifth amendment?

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Did the court of appeals err in denying petitioner's COA application?
