No. C 15-0614 CRB (PR)

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

Petitioner, a state prisoner at Salinas Valley State Prison, has filed a

second or successive petition for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254

challenging a June 2000 conviction and sentence from Santa Clara County

Superior Court. His first petition was dismissed as untimely on August 12, 2011. 

See Cole v. Cash, No. C 10-2441 CRB (PR) (N.D. Cal. Aug. 12, 2011) (order

granting respondent’s motion to dismiss).

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.

Based solely on his affidavit of poverty, petitioner’s request to proceed in

forma pauperis is GRANTED. 

The clerk shall enter judgment and close the file.

SO ORDERED.

DATED: Feb. 11, 2015
