Overview: Inmate was not entitled to equitable tolling of the limitations period under 28 U.S.C.S. § 2244(d)(1) on the ground that his prison lacked a law library because ignorance of the law, even for an incarcerated pro se petitioner, generally did not excuse prompt filing. Therefore, the inmate's application for a COA was denied.
