UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MARCO MARROQUIN,

Petitioner,

 vs.

BEN CURRY,

Respondent. /

No. C 07-6098 PJH (PR)

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

This is a habeas case filed pro se by a state prisoner. Respondent’s motion to

dismiss as mixed was granted, the court holding that only one of the six issues was

exhausted. Petitioner was instructed to choose among three options for the five

unexhausted issues. He has chosen to file an amended petition without the unexhausted

issues. The remaining issue, then, is whether the denial of parole was supported by “some

evidence.” This claim is sufficient to require a response. 

CONCLUSION

 1. The clerk shall serve by regular mail a copy of this order and the amended

petition and all attachments thereto on respondent and respondent's attorney, the Attorney

General of the State of California. The clerk also shall serve a copy of this order on

petitioner. 

2. Respondent shall file with the court and serve on petitioner, within sixty days of

the issuance of this order, an answer conforming in all respects to Rule 5 of the Rules

Governing Section 2254 Cases, showing cause why a writ of habeas corpus should not be

granted. Respondent shall file with the answer and serve on petitioner a copy of all

portions of the state trial record that have been transcribed previously and that are relevant

to a determination of the issues presented by the petition. 

If petitioner wishes to respond to the answer, he shall do so by filing a traverse with

the court and serving it on respondent within thirty days of his receipt of the answer.

3. Respondent may file a motion to dismiss on procedural grounds in lieu of an

answer, as set forth in the Advisory Committee Notes to Rule 4 of the Rules Governing

Section 2254 Cases. If respondent files such a motion, petitioner shall file with the court

and serve on respondent an opposition or statement of non-opposition within thirty days of

receipt of the motion, and respondent shall file with the court and serve on petitioner a reply

within fifteen days of receipt of any opposition.

4. Petitioner is reminded that all communications with the court must be served on

respondent by mailing a true copy of the document to respondent’s counsel. Petitioner

must keep the court informed of any change of address and must comply with the court's

orders in a timely fashion. Failure to do so may result in the dismissal of this action for

failure to prosecute pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). See Martinez v.

Johnson, 104 F.3d 769, 772 (5th Cir. 1997) (Rule 41(b) applicable in habeas cases). 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 25, 2008.
