DEATH PENALTY CASE

ORDER

This habeas case is currently under a partial stay of proceedings while Petitioner

pursues sentencing relief in state court pursuant to Atkins v. Virginia, 536 U.S. 304 (2002).

On April 22, 2011, the Court held a status hearing to obtain a better understanding regarding

how the ongoing state court litigation in Pima County Superior Court is proceeding and when

it will be concluded. The parties acknowledged the protracted nature of the proceeding, but

advised that a substantial amount of background information and reports have been compiled

from mental health experts, and that they are now ready to propose a schedule and proceed

to an anticipated three or four-day state court evidentiary hearing in December 2011.
