Bowe v. United States · ¶45

Second, this Court's review (or lack thereof) is not part of how a panel certifes a second or successive filing. Section 2244(b)(3)(A) identifes that the filing must be certified in the court of appeals before an individual can proceed in the district court. Section 2244(b)(3)(B) requires that a three- judge panel make the certification decision. Section 2244(b)(3)(C) tells the panel that the filing must make a prima facie showing that it satisfes the relevant gatekeeping requirements. Finally, § 2244(b)(3)(D) instructs the panel to decide whether to certify a filing within 30 days of receiving the request. These provisions all describe the procedures that a panel must follow in certifying a second or successive filing, and are therefore incorporated by § 2255(h)'s cross- reference.
