ORDER

Petitioner Victor O. Dema, who resides in Mesa, Arizona, has filed a pro se pleading

Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (Doc. #1).1

 The $5.00

filing fee has been paid. The Court will dismiss the Petition without prejudice, with leave

to amend.

I. Petition

Petitioner challenges his September 27, 2007 judgment of conviction for a “probation

violation,” entered in the Mesa City Municipal County in matter #2003070510. The sole

ground Petitioner presents in the Petition for habeas corpus relief is that he is being subjected

to an “[e]xcessive jail sentence of additional eleven day[s] after completion of original

 2Although Petitioner has filled in Ground Two in the Petition, he has drawn a line

diagonally across the page. The Court assumes Petitioner intended to withdraw Ground Two.

 3

Although Petitioner alleges that he did not present the issue in Ground One to the

Arizona Court of Appeals because he was not permitted “to appeal contrary to the USCA

Const Amend 6,” Petitioner does not appear to be stating this as a ground for relief, but

rather, as a reason for not exhausting Ground One. 

JDDL - 2 -

sentence as terms of probation.”2 Petitioner appears to allege that the issue in Ground One

was not presented to the Arizona Court of Appeals because he was not permitted to appeal.

II. Dismissal of Petition With Leave to Amend

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, federal courts “shall entertain an application for a writ

of habeas corpus in behalf of a person in custody pursuant to the judgment of a State court

only on the ground that he is in custody in violation of the Constitution or laws or treaties

of the United States.” 28 U.S.C. § 2254(a) (emphasis added); see also Engle v. Isaac, 456

U.S. 107, 119 (1982). Federal courts may intervene in the state judicial process only to

correct wrongs of a constitutional dimension. Mabry v. Johnson, 467 U.S. 504, 507 (1984);

Wainwright v. Goode, 464 U.S. 78, 84 (1983). Habeas corpus relief is not available for

errors of state law, procedure or evidentiary rulings. Gutierrez v. Griggs, 695 F.2d 1195,

1197 (9th Cir. 1983); Quiroz v. Wawrzaszek, 749 F.2d 1375, 1377 (9th Cir. 1984).

Petitioner has failed to make any reference to the United States Constitution or to any

laws or treaties of the United States.3

 Accordingly, the Petition will be dismissed without

prejudice for failure to allege a violation of the Constitution or laws or treaties of the United

States.

In the interests of justice, the Court will grant Petitioner leave to file an amended

petition, if he so desires, to show how he is being held in violation of the Constitution, laws

or treaties of the United States, to specify all the exhausted grounds for relief which are

available to him, to set forth in summary form the facts supporting each of his grounds, and

to provide information as to how he has exhausted his state court remedies as to each ground

on which he requests action by this Court. For each ground Petitioner alleges in an amended

petition, he must allege how he is in custody in violation of the Constitution or laws or

 4A prisoner attacking his or her state conviction must exhaust state remedies before a

federal court will entertain a petition for writ of habeas corpus. Rose v. Lundy, 455 U.S. 509

(1982); Szeto v. Rushen, 709 F.2d 1340 (9th Cir. 1983). The federal court will not entertain

a petition for writ of habeas corpus unless each and every issue has been exhausted. Rose,

455 U.S. at 521-22. The failure to exhaust subjects the Petitioner to dismissal. Gutierrez v.

Griggs, 695 F.2d 1195 (9th Cir. 1983).

 5

Title 28 U.S.C. § 2244(b) states that a District Court shall dismiss a claim presented in

a second or successive habeas corpus application under section 2254 that was not presented

in a prior application, except under certain circumstances. Furthermore, under 28 U.S.C.

§ 2244(b)(3)(A), before a second or successive application is filed in the district court, the

applicant shall move in the court of appeals for an order authorizing the district court to

consider the application.

JDDL - 3 -

treaties of the United States, and should also provide information as to how he has exhausted

his administrative remedies as to each and every claim.4

Petitioner must limit each ground to the violation of a single constitutional right, must

describe the right and its source in the United States Constitution, and must clearly state

supporting facts showing how that constitutional right was violated. The grounds and facts

must be clearly set out as fully as possible on the court-approved petition form itself. If

Petitioner cannot fit all of his supporting facts or arguments in favor of a particular ground

on the court-approved form, then he may continue on an attachment, but each matter on any

attachment must be clearly referenced to a particular ground on the court-approved form. 

Petitioner should take notice that by amending his Petition, he will be presumed to

have deliberately waived his right to raise any constitutional errors or deprivations other than

those set forth in his amended habeas petition, and the Court may dismiss any subsequent

petitions. 28 U.S.C. § 2244.5

Petitioner should further take notice that all grounds alleged in his original Petition

which are not alleged in any amended petition will be waived. Hal Roach Studios v. Richard

Feiner & Co., 896 F.2d 1542, 1546 (9th Cir. 1990) (“an amended pleading supersedes the

original”); King v. Atiyeh, 814 F.2d 565 (9th Cir. 1987).

III. Warnings

A. Address Changes

Petitioner must file and serve a notice of a change of address in accordance with Rule

83.3(d) of the Local Rules of Civil Procedure. Petitioner must not include a motion for other

relief with a notice of change of address. Failure to comply may result in dismissal of this

action.

B. Copies

Petitioner must submit an additional copy of every document that he files for use by

the Court. See LRCiv 5.4. Failure to comply may result in the filing being stricken without

further notice to Petitioner.

C. Possible Dismissal

If Petitioner fails to timely comply with every provision of this Order, including these

warnings, the Court may dismiss this action without further notice. See Ferdik v. Bonzelet,

963 F.2d 1258, 1260-61 (9th Cir. 1992) (a district court may dismiss an action for failure to

comply with any order of the Court).

IT IS ORDERED:

(1) The Petition (Doc. #1) is dismissed without prejudice, with leave to amend.

Petitioner has 30 days from the filing date of this Order to amend his original Petition to

show how he is being held in custody in violation of the Constitution, laws or treaties of the

United States, to specify all the exhausted grounds for relief which are available to him, to

set forth in summary form the facts supporting each of his grounds, and to provide

information as to how he has first exhausted his state court remedies as to each ground on

which he requests action by this Court. The amended petition must be retyped or rewritten

in its entirety on a court-approved form and may not incorporate any part of the original

Petition, including exhibits, by reference. Any amended petition submitted by Petitioner

should be clearly designated as an amended petition on the face of the document. Petitioner

should take notice that if he fails to timely file an amended petition, the Clerk of Court will

enter a judgment of dismissal of the action without further notice to Petitioner.

(3) The Clerk of Court must provide Petitioner with a current court-approved

Instructions for Filing a Petition Under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 

for a Writ of Habeas Corpus by a Person in State Custody 

in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona

1. Who May Use This Form. To use this form, you must be a person who is currently serving

a sentence under a judgment against you in a state court. You are asking for relief from the

conviction or the sentence on the grounds that your conviction or sentence violates the United

States Constitution or other federal law. You also may use this form to challenge a state

judgment that imposed a sentence to be served in the future, but you must fill in the name of the

state where the judgment was entered. If you want to challenge a federal conviction or

sentence, you should file a motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 to vacate sentence in the federal

court that entered the judgment. This form should not be used in death penalty cases. If you

were sentenced to death, you are entitled to the assistance of counsel and you should request the

appointment of counsel.

2. The Form. Local Rule of Civil Procedure (LRCiv) 3.5(a) provides that habeas corpus

petitions must be filed on the court-approved form. The form must be typed or neatly

handwritten. All questions must be answered clearly and concisely in the appropriate space on

the form. If needed, you may attach additional pages. The form, however, must be completely

filled in to the extent applicable. You do not need to cite law. If you want to file a brief or

arguments, you must attach a separate memorandum. 

3. Your Signature. You must tell the truth and sign the form. If you make a false statement of

a material fact, you may be prosecuted for perjury.

4. The Filing Fee. The filing fee for this action is $5.00. If you are unable to pay the filing

fee, you may request permission to proceed in forma pauperis by completing and signing the

Application to Proceed In Forma Pauperis provided with the petition form. You must have an

official at the prison or jail complete the certificate at the bottom of the application form. If the

amount of money in your account exceeds $25.00, you must pay the $5.00 filing fee. LRCiv

3.5(b).

5. Original and Judge’s Copy. You must send an original plus one copy of your petition and

of any other document submitted to the Court. You must send one additional copy to the Court

if you wish to have a file-stamped copy of the document returned to you. All copies must be

identical to the original. Copies may be legibly handwritten.

6. Where to File. You should file your petition in the division where you were convicted. See

LRCiv 5.1(b). If you are challenging a judgment of conviction entered in Maricopa, Pinal,

Yuma, La Paz, or Gila County, file your petition in the Phoenix Division. If you are challenging

a judgment of conviction entered in Apache, Navajo, Coconino, Mohave, or Yavapai County,

file your petition in the Prescott Division. If you are challenging a judgment of conviction

entered in Pima, Cochise, Santa Cruz, Graham, or Greenlee County, file your petition in the

Tucson Division. See LRCiv 5.1(b) and 77.1(a).

Mail the original and one copy of your petition with the $5.00 filing fee or the

application to proceed in forma pauperis to:

Phoenix & Prescott Divisions: OR Tucson Division:

U.S. District Court Clerk U.S. District Court Clerk

U.S. Courthouse, Suite 130 U.S. Courthouse, Suite 1500

Phoenix, Arizona 85003-2119 Tucson, Arizona 85701-5010

7. Change of Address. You must immediately notify the Court and respondents in writing of

any change in your mailing address. Failure to notify the Court of any change in your mailing

address may result in the dismissal of your case.

8. Certificate of Service. You must provide the respondents with a copy of any document you

submit to the Court (except the initial petition and application to proceed in forma pauperis).

Each original document (except the initial petition and application to proceed in forma pauperis)

must include a certificate of service on the last page of the document stating the date a copy of

the document was mailed to the respondents and the address to which it was mailed. Fed. R.

Civ. P. 5(a), (d). Any document received by the Court that does not include a certificate of

service may be stricken. A certificate of service should be in the following form:

I hereby certify that a copy of the foregoing document was mailed

this (month, day, year) to:

Name: 

Address: 

 Attorney for Respondent(s)

 

(Signature)

9. Amended Petition. If you need to change any of the information in the initial petition, you

must file an amended petition. The amended petition must be written on the court-approved

form. You may file one amended petition without leave (permission) of Court before any

respondent has answered your original petition. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a). After any respondent

has filed an answer, you must file a motion for leave to amend and lodge (submit) a proposed

amended petition. LRCiv 15.1. An amended petition may not incorporate by reference any part

of your prior petition. LRCiv 15.1(a)(2). Any grounds not included in the amended petition

are considered dismissed.

10. Exhibits. If available, you should attach a copy of all state and federal court written

decisions regarding the conviction you are challenging. Do not submit any other exhibits with

the petition. Instead, you should paraphrase the relevant information in the petition.

11. Letters and Motions. It is generally inappropriate to write a letter to any judge or the staff

of any judge. The only appropriate way to communicate with the Court is by filing a written

pleading or motion.

12. Warnings.

a. Judgment Entered by a Single Court. You may challenge the judgment entered by

only one court. Multiple counts which resulted in a judgment by the same court may be

challenged in the same petition. If you wish to challenge judgments entered by more

than one court, however, you must file separate petitions for each judgment.

b. Grounds for Relief. You must raise all grounds for relief that relate to this conviction

or sentence. Any grounds not raised in this petition will likely be barred from being

raised in any subsequent federal action.

c. Exhaustion. In order to proceed in federal court, you ordinarily must exhaust the

remedies available to you in the state courts as to each claim on which you request action

by the federal court. If you did not fairly present each of your grounds to the Arizona

Court of Appeals, your petition may be dismissed. If you did not present one or more

of your grounds to the Arizona Court of Appeals, explain why you did not.

FINAL NOTE

You should follow these instructions carefully. Failure to do so may result in your

petition being stricken or dismissed by the Court. All questions must be answered concisely in

the proper space on the form. If you need more space, you may attach additional pages. But

the form must be completely filled in to the extent applicable. If you attach additional pages,

be sure to identify which section of the petition is being continued and number all pages.

16. TIMELINESS OF PETITION: If your judgment of conviction became final more than one year ago, you

must explain why the one-year statute of limitations in 28 U.S.C. § 2244(d) does not bar your petition.*

*Section 2244(d) provides in part that:

(1) A 1-year period of limitation shall apply to an application for a writ of habeas corpus by a person

in custody pursuant to the judgment of a State court. The limitation period shall run from the latest of-

(A) the date on which the judgment became final by the conclusion of direct review or the
