IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

VIKRAM BILLA,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-05-1554 GEB CMK P

vs.

A.P. KANE,

Respondent.

 / ORDER

On November 4, 2005, the court filed findings and recommendations

recommending that petitioner’s application for a writ of habeas corpus be dismissed for failure to

exhaust state remedies. The court noted that petitioner indicated that he had filed his petition

with the California Supreme Court in May 2005 and that his petition was pending. 

On May 8, 2005, petitioner notified the court that he had exhausted all his claims

in state court. Accordingly, the court VACATES the November 4, 2005 findings and

recommendations. 

The court has reviewed the habeas petitioner filed on October 27, 2005. It is not

clear to the court whether petitioner has included all his habeas claims in the October 27, 2005

petition. The court grants petitioner thirty days to file an amended habeas petition. If petitioner

fails to file an amended petition, the court will assume that petitioner intends

1. The findings and recommendations filed November 4, 2005 (doc. 10) are

vacated.

2. Petitioner is granted thirty days to file an amended petition. Should petitioner

27, 2005 petition.
