UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SAN JOSE DIVISION

: JEFFREY-MERRITT : WILSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

NBS DEFAULT SERVICES, LLC, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 16-cv-06253-BLF 

ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR 

WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

[Re: ECF 10, 11]

On November 7, 2106, Plaintiff : Jeffrey-Merritt : Wilson filed a notice of petition and 

motion for a writ of habeas corpus and a praecipe to the clerk of the court. ECF 10, 11. Among 

other allegations, Wilson claims that Defendants are “restraining and conspiring to restrain [his 

liberty] based on an unconscionable contract, an action alleged assumpsit, presumed and operated 

in fraud/fiction for profit and gain under limited liability maritime insurance scheme.” Mot. 6–7, 

ECF 10. The motion stems from a state court proceeding related to real property. Id. at 13. 

The writ of habeas corpus extends only to prisoners, but Wilson does not allege that he is 

in custody. See 28 U.S.C.A. § 2241. The Court further notes that there is no indication that 

service has been executed and thus, the motion is submitted ex parte. However, Wilson offers no 

authority under which the Court could grant this motion ex parte. Accordingly, and for the 

foregoing reasons, the Court DENIES Plaintiff’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus and praecipe 

to the clerk of court. For the same reasons, the Court declines to grant Plaintiff’s request for a 

hearing. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: November 14, 2016
