IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CARLOS BURNETT,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-01-0481 RRB DAD P

vs.

KEN CLARK, Warden, 

Respondent. ORDER

 /

On June 19, 2003, this court stayed this action so that petitioner could exhaust

newly identified claims in state court. Petitioner has since elected not to return to state court with

an exhaustion petition and has requested that the court lift the stay in this action and proceed

upon his first amended petition and memorandum of points and authorities. Good cause

appearing, the court will grant petitioner’s request. 

Since petitioner may be entitled to habeas corpus relief if the claimed violations of

constitutional rights are proved, respondent will be directed to file a response to petitioner’s first

amended petition.
