ORDER DIRECTING RESPONDENT TO

SUBMIT STATE COURT DOCUMENTS

Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding with a petition for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to

28 U.S.C. § 2254. Petitioner is represented in this action by Barry L. Morris, Esq. Respondent is

represented in this action by Erik R. Brunkal, Esq., of the Office of the Attorney General. The parties

having voluntarily consented to exercise of Magistrate Judge jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C.

§ 636(c)(1), by order dated April 10, 2003, this case was assigned to the Magistrate Judge for all

purposes, including entry of final judgment.

On December 26, 2007, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed and remanded this case

for further consideration of Petitioner’s ineffective assistance of counsel claim. It has come to the

Court’s attention that the Court is without copies of the state court transcripts, in particular,

transcripts of the change of plea hearing and the sentencing hearing.
