FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LEONARD ESCAMILLA, No. CIV S-03-1503 MCE KJM P

Petitioner, 

v. ORDER

J. HAMLET, Warden,

Respondent. 

__________________________/

Petitioner is a prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition

for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. §2254. On March 4,

2005, the magistrate judge issued findings and recommendations,

recommending that respondent’s motion to dismiss be granted. 

Petitioner did not file objections within the fifteen day period

given to him by the magistrate judge. On March 25, 2005, this

court adopted the findings and recommendations and granted the

motion to dismiss. Judgment was entered the same day.

On March 31, 2005, petitioner filed a request “for leave of

the court to file a belated response opposition to the

magistrate’s findings and recommendations. Because judgment has

been entered, a request for an extension of time is not

appropriate. Moreover, although petitioner relies on his

ignorance of law and procedures, he has not satisfied the

requirements of rule 60(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil

Procedure for relief from the judgment. 

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that petitioner’s March 31, 2005

request for an extension of time is denied. 

DATE: May 3, 2005
