UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LONNIE LEE POSLOF, JR.,

Petitioner,

v.

M. ATTCHLEY, WARDEN,

Respondent.

Case. No. 1:21-cv-00339-JLT-HBK (HC) 

ORDER GRANTING PETITIONER’S 

MOTION TO WITHDRAW MOTION FOR 

VOLUNTARY DISMISSAL

ORDER GRANTING PETITIONER’S

MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO

FILE OBJECTIONS

(Doc. No. 33)

 

 

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this habeas corpus 

action, filed a motion to withdraw his motion for voluntary dismissal (Doc. No. 31) and for an

extension of time to file objections to the undersigned’s November 15, 2024 Findings and 

Recommendations to Deny Petitioner’s Motion to Stay (Doc. No. 32). (Doc. No. 33, “Motion”). 

Petitioner seeks an extension of time to file objections to the Findings and 

Recommendation because he is “currently in punitive segregation housing, with no legal resource 

and materials.” (Doc. No. 33 at 2). For good cause shown, the Court will grant Petitioner a 14-

day extension of time to file objections. Petitioner also claims he was not served with a copy of 

Respondent’s opposition to his motion to stay. (Id.). The Court notes that Respondent attached a

declaration of service to their opposition to the motion to stay indicating it was mailed to 

Petitioner on November 1, 2024. (Doc. No. 29 at 5). Neither Petitioner’s pro se status nor his 

prisoner status entitled him to receive complimentary copies. Blair v. CDCR, 2018 WL 1959532, 

at *6 n.2 (E.D. Cal. Apr. 25, 2018). Regardless, in order to expedite Petitioner’s preparation of 

his objections to the Findings and Recommendations, the Court will direct the Clerk to provide a 

courtesy copy of Respondent’s opposition to Petitioner’s motion for stay and abeyance (Doc. No. 

29).

In addition, Petitioner asks to withdraw his motion for voluntary dismissal (Doc. No. 31) 

as it was filed in error “by another prisoner.” (Doc. No. 33 at 4). Based on Petitioner’s request, 

the motion for voluntary dismissal will be withdrawn.

Accordingly, it is ORDERED:

1. Petitioner’s Motion for Extension of Time (Doc. No. 33) is GRANTED to the limited 

extent that Petitioner shall deliver any objections to the November 15, 2024 Findings 

and Recommendations (Doc. No. 32) to correctional officials for mailing no later 

than December 16, 2024.

2. The Clerk of Court shall provide a one-time courtesy copy of Respondent’s opposition 

to the motion for stay and abeyance (Doc. No. 29) with this Order. 

3. Petitoner’s Motion to Withdraw his Motion for Voluntary Dismissal (Doc. No. 31) is 

GRANTED.
