UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

PAUL FREE,

Petitioner,

v.

PAUL COPENHAVER,

Respondent.

1:14-cv-01542-GSA-HC

ORDER DENYING PETITIONER’S 

MOTION FOR EXPEDITED SCREENING 

(ECF No. 3)

Petitioner is a federal prisoner proceeding pro se in a habeas corpus action pursuant to 28 

U.S.C. § 2241. 

On October 2, 2014, Petitioner filed a motion to expedite proceedings in the pending 

petition for writ of habeas corpus. (ECF No. 3). As Petitioner correctly states, the instant action 

is pending before this Court. However, the Court does not have an expedited calendar. 

Petitioner is advised that the Court acts to resolve all pending cases in the most efficient manner 

possible. The Court is aware of Petitioner’s pending petition. Nevertheless, the Court’s docket 

of pending cases is substantial, and the Court must act first on those matters that have been 

pending the longest.
