UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MATTA J. SANTOS,

Petitioner,

v.

K. HOLLAND, et al.,

Respondents.

Case No. 1:12-cv-01651-LJO-EPG-HC

ORDER FOR SUPPLEMENTAL BRIEFING

Petitioner Matta J. Santos is a state prisoner proceeding with a petition for writ of habeas 

corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. In the petition, Petitioner challenges his confinement in the 

security housing unit at Pelican Bay State Prison as a result of a gang validation that he contends 

violated his right to due process. The Court finds that supplemental briefing would assist the 

Court, especially given that Petitioner is now represented by counsel and Respondents filed an 

answer to the original pro se petition.

Accordingly, the Court HEREBY ORDERS:

1. Within THIRTY (30) days of the date of service of this order, Respondent shall file a 

reply to the traverse; and

2. Within THIRTY (30) days of the date of service of the Respondent’s reply, Petitioner 

may file a supplemental traverse.
