U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit

Collins v. Quick

September 3, 2026

Summary

The Tenth Circuit denied Larry Collins's petition for a certificate of appealability and dismissed the case, finding that none of his asserted claims were debatable under the standards for a COA. The court explained that his procedural default arguments, actual‑innocence claim, and other alleged constitutional violations did not meet the requisite thresholds.
