UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

WILLIAM A. BRACKEN, 

Petitioner, 

v. 

PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF 

CALIFORNIA, 

Respondent. 

No. 2:15-cv-0408-WBS-EFB P 

ORDER 

Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel seeking a writ of habeas corpus 

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. He requests an evidentiary hearing. The court has not yet 

reviewed petitioner’s claims in detail. Following a detailed review of the pleadings and records 

submitted in this action, the court sua sponte will order an evidentiary hearing if it appears 

necessary. The court therefore denies petitioner’s requests for an evidentiary hearing (ECF Nos. 

14, 23) without prejudice. 

So ordered. 

DATED: September 21, 2015.
