IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MICHAEL S. LEMELLE, 

Petitioner, No. CIV S-02-1491 LKK KJM P

vs.

CHERYL PLILER, Warden, 

Respondent. ORDER

 /

Petitioner is a state prison inmate proceeding with counsel in a petition for

a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. 

On June 8, 2005, the court held a status hearing on the question whether to

hold an evidentiary hearing. Respondent filed her opposition to an evidentiary hearing on June

21, 2005. On June 30, 2005, petitioner filed his response, arguing in part that petitioner’s pursuit

of collateral review in the state courts is relevant to a determination whether he failed to develop

the factual basis of his claim in state court. 28 U.S.C. § 2254(e)(2). 

Although the court file includes the orders denying the state collateral attacks, it

does not include copies of the petitions themselves, which may have relevance to the inquiry

under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (e)(2).
