IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

GERALD F. STANLEY,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-95-1500 FCD GGH P

vs.

STEVEN ORNOSKI, Acting DEATH PENALTY CASE

Warden of the California State Prison

at San Quentin,

Respondent. ORDER

 /

On March 24, 2006, petitioner filed a motion for partial summary judgment on a

sub-claim of Claim 21 (the Juror Mitts voir dire issue) to be heard on the scheduled date for

evidentiary hearing. This motion, which is filed with an inadequate notice period, could never be

finally adjudicated in any event prior to the evidentiary hearing, and would inevitably lead to

more delay should the Juror Mitts sub-claim not be presented at evidentiary hearing along with

all others.

This is not to say that petitioner’s showing in the motion is not sufficient; the

court offers no opinion in that regard at this time. Petitioner is free to submit at evidentiary

hearing only that already presented evidence which petitioner believes entitles him to judgment,

or petitioner may submit more. Respondent may present whatever appropriate evidence

Petitioner’s March 24, 2006, motion for partial summary judgment is vacated

from calendar.
