UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SALVADOR OLGUIN,

 

Petitioner,

CASE NO. 00-CV-1969 W

 96-CR-1098 W 

ORDER DENYING PETITION

FOR WRIT OF HABEAS

CORPUS 

v.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Respondent.

On January 18, 2006, Petitioner Salvador Olguin (“Petitioner”), a federal prisoner

proceeding pro se, submitted a Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus under 28 U.S.C. §

2255. [Doc. No. 136.] On July 14, 2007, this Court issued an Order Denying

Petitioner’s Request for a Writ of Habeas Corpus. [Doc. No. 143.] 

Meanwhile, on July 9, 2007, Petitioner filed an application with the Ninth Circuit

for authorization to file a second or successive 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion. On September

12, 2007, the Ninth Circuit denied the application and ordered that “[n]o petition for

rehearing or motion for reconsideration shall be filed or entertained in this case.” [Doc.

No. 147.]

 Even if the Petition was construed as a motion for reconsideration of this Court’s prior Order

Denying Petitioner’s Request for a Writ of Habeas Corpus, the Court could not decide the motion

because the Ninth Circuit ordered that no “motion for reconsideration shall be filed or entertained

in this case.” [See Doc. No. 147.]

- 2 - 00cv1969 / 96cr1098

On November 9, 2007, Petitioner filed a “Memorandum Of Law In Support Of

Petition Pursuant To ‘Title 18, United States Code, Section § 3582(c)(2)’ and ‘United

States Sentencing Guidelines §§§ 1B1.10, 2D1.1(c), 4A1, 2(c)’ For Re-Sentencing As

To The Intervening Change ‘In Any Illicit Drug’ ‘Methamphetamine, Marijuana,

Herion [sic], Powder Cocaine’ and ‘Criminal History Category and Points Guideline.’”

[Doc. No. 151.] Because the motion challenges Petitioner’s sentence and was filed in

Petitioner’s habeas case, the Court construes the motion as another Petition for Writ

of Habeas Corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2255. 

In light of the Ninth Circuit’s September 12, 2007 order, this Court cannot rule

on the merits of Petitioner’s claim. The Petition [Doc. No. 151] is therefore DENIED

and the Clerk of the Court shall close the district court file.1

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: January 8, 2008
