ORDER CORRECTING

ERRONEOUS FILING;

CLOSING CASE;

INSTRUCTIONS TO CLERK

On September 25, 2006, Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, filed a

“notice of appeal” from the California Supreme Court’s summary denial of his state

habeas petition, dated June 14, 2006, which the Clerk of Court construed as a habeas

action pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §2254. Petitioner filed an earlier habeas action with the

Court on September 22, 2005, case no. C 05-5822 JF (PR). 

On October 13, 2006, Petitioner filed a “motion of query” in his closed civil rights

action, case no. C 06-2353 JF (PR), notifying the Court that the habeas petition he filed

has two separate case numbers - C 06-5822 JF (PR) and C 06-5893 JF (PR). It appears

that the instant “notice of appeal” document was mistakenly received and opened as a

new case in the instant action.

Accordingly, the Clerk is instructed to copy all documents from the instant case and

transfer the documents to Petitioner’s earlier filed habeas action in case number C 05-

5822 JF (PR). Because the instant case was opened erroneously, the Clerk shall close the

file and terminate any pending motions. The Court will review the petition in a separate

order in case number C 05-5822 JF (PR). 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
