UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOHN DOE,

NO. CIV. S-06-2521 LKK/GGH

Plaintiff,

v.

ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER, AMENDED ORDER

Governor of California,

in his official capacity,

et al

Defendants.

 /

The court previously requested supplemental briefing on the

propriety of declaratory relief in this case. This request

followed the court’s February 9, 2007 order, which found that

the law, properly construed, did not apply to plaintiffs. 

Despite this ruling, one of the defendants, the Attorney

General, still “maintains that the 2000 foot residency that the

2000 foot residency restriction may apply to each plaintiff if

they move in the future.” Supp. Br. at 2. The court already

held that the law may not be applied to plaintiffs in such a

situation, but the Attorney General’s statement illustrates the

need for declaratory relief.

Accordingly, the court hereby DECLARES as follows:

1. The SPPCA’s residency restriction and GPS monitoring

provisions, set forth in Cal. Penal Code §§ 3003.5, 3004, &

3000.07, do not apply to plaintiffs, because they were convicted

prior to the effective date of the statute and were paroled,

given probation, or released from incarceration prior to that

date.

2. The SPPCA’s residency restriction also does not apply

to plaintiffs once they relocate to another residence within

2,000 feet of any public or private school, or park where

children regularly gather.

Judgment for plaintiffs shall be entered, declaring the law

as specified in this order.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: March 5, 2007.
