UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

PAUL FREE,

Petitioner,

v.

PAUL COPENHAVER,

Respondent.

1:14-cv-01542-GSA-HC

ORDER DENYING PETITIONER’S 

MOTION FOR EXPEDITED SCREENING 

(Doc. #2)

Petitioner is a federal prisoner proceeding pro se in a habeas corpus action pursuant to 28 

U.S.C. § 2241. 

On October 2, 2014, Petitioner filed a motion to expedite proceedings in the pending 

petition for writ of habeas corpus. As Petitioner correctly states, the instant action is pending 

before this Court. However, the Court does not have an expedited calendar. Petitioner is 

advised that the Court acts to resolve all pending cases in the most efficient manner possible. 

The Court is aware of Petitioner’s pending petition. Nevertheless, the Court’s docket of pending 

cases is substantial, and the Court must act first on those matters that have been pending the 

longest.
