No. C 07-3926 CRB (PR)

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

(Doc # 2)

Petitioner, a state prisoner currently incarcerated at the California Medical

Facility in Vacaville, has filed a second or successive petition for a writ of habeas

corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. His first petition was dismissed on the merits on

November 19, 2001. See James v. Ramirez-Palmer, No. C 01-3893 CRB (PR)

(N.D. Cal. Nov. 19, 2001) (order).

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 petition accordingly is DISMISSED without prejudice to refiling if petitioner

obtains the necessary order.

The clerk shall terminate all pending motions as moot and close the file.

SO ORDERED.

DATED: August 03, 2007
