No. C 06-00308 JF (PR)

ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR

RENEWED ORDER

(Docket No. 61)

The instant habeas petition under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 was dismissed as untimely on

March 7, 2011. (Docket No. 37.) The Ninth Circuit denied Petitioner’s request for a

certificate of appealability on June 26, 2012. (Docket No. 52.) The Supreme Court

denied a motion for rehearing on November 26, 2012. (Docket No. 56.) Because there

was no further relief available to Petitioner in this matter, the Court denied his motion to

reopen this action on July 14, 2014. (Docket No. 58.)

Petitioner has filed a “motion for a renewed July 14, 2014, order as applied to

due process for appeal on the grounds Chino State Prison mailroom [sic] denied

Petitioner due process of law as applied to the mailbox rule to file a timely appeal when

failing to log Petitioner[‘s] Notice of appeal to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.” 

(Docket No. 61.) Even if this allegation is true, it is no basis to reopen this matter

because no further relief is available to Petitioner with respect habeas action.

Furthermore, it appears that Petitioner’s appeal was not denied as untimely but on the

merits. (See Docket No. 52, citing 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2) (“A certificate of

appealability may issue... only if the applicant has made a substantial showing of the

denial of a constitutional right.”).) Accordingly, the motion for a “renewed” order is

DENIED. 

At most, Petitioner may state a claim for denial of access to the courts pursuant

to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, in which case he may file a separate civil rights action to obtain

appropriate relief. 

No further motions shall be entertained in this closed habeas matter without an

order from the Ninth Circuit. See 28 U.S.C. § 2244(b)(3)(A) (petitioner must first

obtain an order from the court of appeals authorizing the district court to consider a

second or successive petition).

The Clerk shall enclose two copies of the court’s form complaint with a copy of

this order to Petitioner. 

This order terminates Docket No. 61.
