Background
The judgment concerns a petition filed by Saimir Krasniqi and Bruno Krasniqi, who are identified as defendants in the related criminal case, United States v. Saimir Krasniqi and Bruno Krasniqi, No. 10 CR 464 (GHW). The provided text does not identify the petition’s specific claims or explain the underlying dispute.
Ruling
The court ordered that Judge Gorenstein’s report and recommendation be adopted in full. It dismissed the petition.
The court certified under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that an appeal from the order would not be taken in good faith. It therefore denied the petitioners permission to appeal without paying filing fees. The court also found that the petitioners had not made a substantial showing that a constitutional right was denied and denied a certificate of appealability under 28 U.S.C. § 2253. The judgment states that case 21-cv-1753 was closed.
What the Provided Text Does Not Explain
The judgment refers to a memorandum opinion and order dated July 8, 2022, and to Judge Gorenstein’s report and recommendation, but those documents are not included. As a result, the provided text does not state the court’s detailed reasoning or the basis for dismissing the petition.
