IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

STEVEN DOSS,

Petitioner, No. 2:06-cv-00723 ALA HC

vs.

TOM CAREY, Warden, et al., ORDER

Respondents.

 /

Petitioner is proceeding pro se with an application for writ of habeas corpus under 28

U.S.C. § 2254. 

The parties are directed to file simultaneous briefs within twenty-one (21) days from the

date of this order addressing the applicability, if any, of Mayle v. Felix, 545 U.S. 644 (2005), to

the question of whether Petitioner’s newly filed Amended Petition is substantially different from

his original filing and, therefore, does not relate back to the original petition and may be timebarred.
