TIMOTHY R. LOCKABY,

		Petitioner-Appellant,	

No. 99-6243	
	v.	(W.D. Okla.)	
KEN KLINGER,

		Respondent-Appellee.	(D.C. No. CV-98-756-T)		

	ORDER AND JUDGMENT*

Before BALDOCK, HENRY, and LUCERO, Circuit Judges.**

	Timothy Lockaby, proceeding pro se, appeals the dismissal of his petition for habeas relief filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2254.  He has filed a motion for a certificate of appealability.  On August 6, 1992, Mr. Lockaby pleaded guilty to one count of child beating after former conviction of a felony.  Mr. Lockaby moved to withdraw his plea approximately five years after entry of judgment when he filed an application for post-conviction relief in Oklahoma state district court in November 1997.  The district court denied relief on January 6, 1998.  The Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals remanded the case to the district court, which again denied relief on February 24, 1998.  The Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the district court’s denial of relief on April 9, 1998.  Mr. Lockaby filed his § 2254 petition for relief on June 2, 1998.  
	The magistrate judge’s report and recommendation concluded that Mr. Lockaby’s petition should be denied as untimely.  Because Mr. Lockaby’s challenged conviction became “final” before the effective date of the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act (AEDPA), 28 U.S.C. § 2241, the one-year tolling provision set forth in § 2242(d)(2) began to run on April 24, 1996.  See Lindh v. Murphy, 521 U.S. 320, 326-27 (1997); Hoggro v. Boone, 150 F.3d 1223, 1225 (10th Cir. 1998).  Mr. Lockaby did not seek post-conviction relief in state court until three months after the one-year period had expired.  Mr. Lockaby’s claims for equitable tolling are misplaced, because he has not demonstrated any extraordinary way that he has been prevented from asserting his rights.  See Miller v. Marr, 141 F.3d 976, 978 (10th Cir. 1998).  In addition, Mr. Lockaby has not asserted his factual innocence.  See Bousely v. United States, 118 S. Ct. 1604, 1611 (1998). The district court adopted the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation.  
	We have thoroughly reviewed Mr. Lockaby’s application for a certificate of appealability, his brief, the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation, the district court’s order and the entire record before us.  We DENY Mr. Lockaby’s application for a certificate of appealability for substantially the same reasons set forth in the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation. We also DENY his motion to proceed in forma pauperis and DISMISS  the appeal.
