Petitioner, No. CIV S-06-2251 FCD KJM P

vs.

Respondent. ORDER

 /

Petitioner, is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with an application for writ of

habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Once an answer has been filed, a party may amend a

pleading only by leave of court or by written consent of the adverse party. See Fed. R. Civ. P.

15(a). An answer was filed on December 26, 2007. Petitioner has filed neither a motion to

amend nor a stipulation to amend his habeas petition signed by all parties. Plaintiff’s amended

petitions, filed January 2, 2008 and January 8, 2008 will therefore be stricken, and this action

will proceed on the amended petition filed May 25, 2007.
