report requesting that the stay be extended for an additional sixty (60)

days. Doc. No. 82. In support, Petitioner explained that the

California Supreme Court has not yet issued a ruling on his pending

petition. Id. at 3.

is hereby GRANTED. Accordingly, the instant petition for writ of habeas

corpus is hereby stayed until November 17, 2006 to allow Petitioner to

continue to exhaust his claims in California state court. Petitioner is

hereby warned that failure to provide the Court with a written report

regarding the status of his state court proceedings on or before

November 17, 2006 will result in the Court lifting the stay and

evaluating the merits of his habeas petition. Should the California

state court issue a ruling prior to November 17, 2006, Petitioner is

further ordered to notify the Court within three days of his receipt of

that ruling.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
