ORDER 

PLAINTIFF 

DEFENDANTS 

1. Pinney's motion for a writ of habeas corpus, NQ 44, is denied. 

Pinney can't get habeas relief in this § 1983 lawsuit; he must file a 

separate habeas corpus action if he wants to challenge his incarceration. 

Preiser v. Rodriguez, 411 U.S. 475,500 (1973). 

2. This case is stayed pending the final disposition of Pinney' s 

state criminal case. Pinney' s embedded motion to consolidate his cases, 

NQ 44 at 2, is therefore denied without prejudice. This case must remain 

on hold.
