IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

FERNANDO MORENO MENDEZ et al.,

Petitioners,

 v.

JANET NAPOLITANO et al.,

Respondents. /

No. C12-06069 CRB

ORDER DIRECTING RESPONSE

The parties agreed in their simultaneous supplemental briefing that the Ninth Circuit’s

decision is res judicata here. See Resp. Supp. Br. (dkt. 23) at 4-7; Pet. Supp. Br. (dkt. 24) at

5. Petitioners asserted, however, that the Ninth Circuit’s decision does not foreclose claim

41.f in their present habeas petition. Pet. Supp. Br. at 5-6. That claim pertains to the alleged

failure of attorney Meeks to raise the BIA’s failure to reissue the voluntary departure order in

its January 29, 2009 order, and the BIA’s unilateral vacating of the voluntary departure

applications. Pet. (dkt. 1) ¶ 41.f. Respondents have not had an opportunity to respond to that

argument. Accordingly, Respondents are DIRECTED to file a response to Petitioners’

argument as to claim 41.f by 5:00 PM on Friday, March 20, 2015.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: March 10, 2015
