UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

VICTORIANO LEMOS MEJIA,

Petitioner,

v.

SYLVIA GARCIA, Warden,

Respondent.

 /

CV F 03-5489 REC DLB HC

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE WHY

SANCTIONS SHOULD NOT BE IMPOSED

FOR FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH COURT

ORDER

[Doc. 18]

Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition for writ of habeas corpus

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. 

On July 14, 2005, the Court directed Respondent to submit supplemental briefing in light

of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeal’s decision in Gibson v. Ortiz, 387 F.3d 812 (9th Cir. 2004),

within thirty days from the date of service of that order. Over thirty days have passed and

Respondent has failed to submit its briefing. 

Local Rule 11-110 provides that “a failure of counsel or of a party to comply with these

Local Rules or with any order of the Court may be grounds for the imposition by the Court of any

and all sanctions . . . within the inherent power of the Court.@
