527 F.3d 797 (9th Cir. 2008), which may directly impact Swygert’s petition.

On June 3, 2008, United States Magistrate Judge Gregory Hollows filed an order

that petitioner show cause why this action should not be administratively stayed pending

resolution of Hayward. On August 14, 2008, Judge Hollows filed Findings and
