UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RICHARD POTTS,

Petitioner,

v.

A. MATEVOUSIAN,

Respondent.

Case No. 1:15-cv-00341-AWI-BAM HC

ORDER DIRECTING PETITIONER TO 

SUPPLEMENT THE RECORD

Petitioner is a federal prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition for writ of habeas corpus 

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. He contends that he is actually innocent and entitled to relief under 

Burrage v. United States, 134 S.Ct. 881 (2014). 

In the memorandum of law supporting the petition, Petitioner wrote:

On December [blank space], 2014 Petitioner filed a petition under 

28 U.S.C. [§] 2244 seeking permission to file a second or 

successive § 2255 [petition] in light of Burrage v. United States, 

134 [S.Ct.] 881 (2014) which was denied January 30, 2015.

Doc. 1 at 12.

Although this previous proceeding is relevant to the petition before this Court, Petitioner neither 

identifies the court in which he moved for leave to file a second or successive complaint nor 

includes a copy of the unidentified court's order.

Accordingly, Petitioner is hereby ORDERED to supplement the record in this matter by 

filing, within 30 days of this order, copies of (1) Petitioner's December 2014 motion for leave to 

file a second or successive complaint, (2) the January 2015 order denying leave to file a second or 

successive petition and (3) any related motions, brief, or other related documents necessary for a 

full understanding of the nature of Petitioner's December 2014 motion and the court's denial of it. 

Failure to comply with this order may result, without further notice, in dismissal of the petition 

for failure to prosecute.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
