IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

BOBBY MARION DIXON,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-06-0410 DFL GGH P

vs.

MICHAEL S. EVANS, Warden,

 Respondent. ORDER

 /

This court directed the parties to file a joint scheduling statement in this matter by

order filed on May 3, 2007. Subsequently, extensions of time have been granted for the filing of

the joint statement, but petitioner’s counsel has now filed a status report only on petitioner’s

behalf. Nevertheless, the court has reviewed the report and now makes the following orders:

1. As petitioner anticipates filing an amended petition stating only exhausted

claims, as well as a supporting memorandum of points and authorities, the filing is due on or

before October 21, 2007. Respondent must file an answer or dispositive motion within 45 days

thereafter; petitioner must file any reply or opposition, as appropriate, within 30 days of service

of respondent’s responsive pleading; if respondent filed a motion, respondent will have 30 days

after service of an opposition to file a reply.

2. Although petitioner does not now anticipate seeking discovery, should he

ultimately chose to do so, he must file a motion for leave to conduct discovery under the Rules

Governing Section 2254 Cases, Rule 6(a), within 60 days; if respondent opposes any such

motion, respondent must do so within 30 days thereafter; petitioner’s reply, if any, must be filed

within 15 days of any opposition by respondent.

3. Petitioner does not anticipate moving for an evidentiary hearing, but should he

ultimately elect to do so, the motion must be filed at the earliest appropriate opportunity; should

petitioner file a motion for an evidentiary hearing, if respondent opposes any such motion, the

opposition must be filed within 30 days of service of the motion, and petitioner must file any

reply within 15 days of service of any opposition.
