UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

GLORIA BARAJAS,

Petitioner,

v.

KAREN WISE, PAROLE AGENT,

Respondent.

 /

1:02-CV-6202 DLB HC

ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF

HABEAS CORPUS PURSUANT TO NINTH

CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS MANDATE

[Doc. 51]

On February 15, 2006, the undersigned granted Petitioner’s petition for writ of habeas

corpus filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, subject to the State’s right to retry Petitioner. (Court

Doc. 41.) 

The State filed a notice of appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth

Circuit. (Court Doc. 45.) 

On March 23, 2007, the Ninth Circuit, in a published opinion, affirmed this Court’s

decision granting the petition. See Barajas v. Wise, 481 F.3d 734 (9 Cir. 2007). th

The appellate court subsequently granted the State’s motion for rehearing, and on 

October 22, 2007, the Court held, in an unpublished opinion “that the California trial court did

not violate defendant Barajas’ constitutional right of confrontation of the witness against him by

denying disclosure of the witness’s current and former addresses as a matter of discretion,” and

the petition for writ of habeas corpus should be denied. Barajas v. Wise, 2007 WL 3105756

(October 22, 2007) (en banc).
