IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MICHAEL LEE CHILDRESS, JR.,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-02-870 DFL GGH P

vs.

MIKE KNOWLES, Warden, 

Respondent. ORDER

 /

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding with appointed counsel, has filed an

application for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Pending before the court is

petitioner’s motion for judgment on the pleadings on the ground that petitioner’s rights to due

process and to a jury trial were violated by the trial court’s jury instructions on the intent required

for implied malice murder. However, respondent has failed to lodge the relevant volume of the

Reporter’s Transcript, i.e., that portion containing the trial judge’s instructions to the jury. 

Therefore, respondent must lodge with this court, within ten (10) days, volume 4, containing

pages 901 through 1060, of the Reporter’s Transcript.

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

DATED: 6/30/05 /s/ Gregory G. Hollows
