UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JERRY F. STANLEY,

Petitioner,

v.

WARDEN, San Quentin State Prison,

Respondent.

No. 2:95-CV-1500 JAM CKD

DEATH PENALTY CASE

ORDER

Attorney Jack Leavitt seeks leave to file documents in paper pursuant to Local Rule 

133(b)(1). Good cause appearing, Mr. Leavitt’s request (ECF No. 953) is GRANTED. 

In addition, Mr. Leavitt asks the undersigned to recuse herself from this proceeding 

because she recently referred to him as petitioner’s “self-proclaimed” counsel. Based on the 

history of Mr. Leavitt’s involvement in this case and the fact he has not been appointed by this 

court to represent petitioner in this proceeding, the court does not find the use of the term “selfproclaimed” to be off-base. In any event, the undersigned finds no reason she will be unable to 

be impartial in considering the motion for sanctions against Mr. Leavitt. See 28 U.S.C. §455. 

Accordingly, Mr. Leavitt’s recusal motion (ECF No. 954) is DENIED.
