Petitioner Steven Bonilla has filed a motion challenging the undersigned for cause,

arguing that she is incompetent based on her interpretation and handling of petitioner’s pro se

motions filed pursuant to the Crime Victim’s Rights Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3771. (Dkt. No. 291) 

This is petitioner’s second attempt to have the undersigned disqualified on the basis of such

by another judge.

Any decision on petitioner’s currently pending pro se motions is stayed pending the

resolution of this motion. All other briefing shall continue as previously ordered.
