Description
Caruthers Alexander, a Texas death row inmate, seeks a certificate of appealability ("COA") to appeal the district courts denial of his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. 28 U.S.C. § 2253. Because Alexanders petition runs afoul of the non-retroactivity rule in Teague v. Lane, 489 U.S. 288, 109 S.Ct. 1060 (1989), we deny the requested COA.
