UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

PAUL CARLOS GARCIA,

Petitioner,

v.

TIM VIRGA, Warden,

Respondent.

No. 1:13-cv-00448-SKO HC

ORDER DENYING PETITIONER’S 

MOTION FOR RULING ON PETITION

(Doc. 29)

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

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, moves for a ruling on his petition.

1

 Respondent has not filed 

opposition or consent. 

A court has inherent power to control its docket and the disposition of cases with economy 

of time and effort for both the court and the parties. Landis v. North American Co., 299 U.S. 248, 

251-55 (1936); Ferdik v. Bonzelet, 963 F.2d 1258, 1260 (9th Cir. 1992). Because of the large 

volume of habeas petitions and limited Court resources, the petition in this case will be addressed 

in due course.

Accordingly, Petitioner’s motion for ruling on his petition is hereby DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 5, 2016 /s/ Sheila K. Oberto 

UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

 

1

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c)(1), both parties consented, in writing, to the jurisdiction of a United States 

Magistrate Judge to conduct all further proceedings in this case, including the entry of final judgment.
