Case No. 09cv1543-JM (BLM)

ORDER DENYING PETITIONER’S

MOTION FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF

[Doc. No. 22]

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

pauperis, is seeking habeas relief from this Court. His pending

petition challenges his state court conviction of receiving stolen

property. Respondent has filed an answer to the petition, Petitioner

has filed a traverse, and the matter presently is under submission with

the Court. 

On January 4, 2010, Petitioner filed a motion for injunctive relief.

Doc. No. 22. Having reviewed the motion, the Court finds that it does

not address any issue presented in Petitioner’s pending habeas case.

However, Petitioner mentions in the motion that he also has filed a

civil complaint alleging sexual harassment during an unclothed body

search conducted in prison. As the instant motion for injunctive relief

appears to relate to that inci dent, the Court believes Petitioner may

inadvertently have filed the instant motion before this Court instead of

before the court hearing the civil rights complaint. 

For the foregoing reasons, the motion is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
