SCOTT BURNS,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-05-2094 LKK GGH P

vs.

A.P. KANE, Warden,

Respondent. ORDER

 /

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an application for a writ of

habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. In the pending submitted matter, petitioner

challenges a 2004 parole denial. On December 17, 2007, petitioner inappropriately directed a

letter to the Clerk of the Court concerning the timeliness of his potential challenge to a 2006

parole denial. 

The Clerk of the Court cannot dispense legal advice to petitioner. Moreover, if

petitioner wishes to challenge a parole denial subsequent to the one at issue herein, he must file a

separate petition for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. See Rule 2(c) of the

Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases in the United States District Courts. Any issue regarding
