No further order in response to petitioner’s motion for a decision will issue. From

2004 through 2007 over 3,500 actions have been filed by California prisoners with the United

States District Court for the Eastern District of California seeking habeas relief. The court is

well aware of its backlog of submitted cases and is working diligently in that regard. Petitioner is

informed that as long as he keeps the court informed of any change of address, no further action

on his part is necessary. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that petitioner’s November 19, 2007

motion shall be placed in the file.

DATED: November 26, 2007.
