IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ALFRED EUGENE MACHADO,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-05-0278 LKK GGH P

vs.

TOM CAREY, et al., 

Respondents. ORDER

 /

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an application for a writ of

habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Petitioner has paid the filing fee.

Petitioner previously filed a habeas corpus petition in this court challenging the

2000 decision by the Board of Prison Terms finding him ineligible for parole, CIV S-01-1906

GEB GGH P. On February 11, 2005, the court recommended that 01-1906 be denied but for

claim 4.1 The court found that claim 4, alleging a violation of petitioner’s plea agreement, should

be raised in a separate petition. The court ordered the Clerk of the Court to copy the amended

petition filed in 01-1906 and open a new action. The instant action is that new action. 

Respondent is directed to file a response to claim 4 only as claims 1-3 were already resolved in
