UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DONACIANO RENTERIA,

Petitioner,

v.

WARDEN, FCI Herlong,

Respondent.

No. 2:22-cv-01376-CKD P

ORDER

Petitioner is a federal inmate who filed a new habeas corpus petition pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 

§ 2241 through counsel requesting the court to order the Bureau of Prisons to comply with the 

First Step Act and award petitioner credits that he has earned. ECF No. 33. The habeas petition 

was accompanied by the requisite $5.00 filing fee. 

A review of the docket indicates that counsel erroneously filed this new habeas petition on 

the docket of his prior 2241 case. Therefore, the court will strike the newly filed § 2241 

application from the docket of this case and direct the Clerk of Court to open it as a new habeas 

corpus action. In the interests of judicial economy, the Clerk shall assign the new habeas corpus 

action to the undersigned magistrate judge. Once the new case is opened, the court will proceed 

to screen the pending § 2241 petition pursuant to Rule 4 of the Rules Governing Habeas Corpus 

Cases.
