No. C 15-0114 CRB (PR)

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

(Dkt. #2)

Petitioner, a state prisoner incarcerated at California State Prison, Los

Angeles County in Lancaster, California, has filed a second or successive petition

for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 challenging a 1994 conviction

from Alameda County Superior Court. His first federal habeas petition was

denied on the merits in 2001. See Havey v. Hubbard, No. C 97-2330 CRB (PR)

(N.D. Cal. July 9, 2001) (order denying petition for writ of habeas corpus).

A second or successive petition may not be filed in this court unless

petitioner first obtains from the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth

Circuit an order authorizing this court to consider the petition. See 28 U.S.C. §

2244(b)(3)(A). Petitioner has not obtained such an order from the Ninth Circuit. 

The instant petition accordingly is DISMISSED without prejudice to refiling if

petitioner obtains the necessary order.
