ORDER DISMISSING STATE

HABEAS PETITION AS

IMPROPERLY FILED IN THIS

COURT

(Docket No. 3)

Petitioner, a state prisoner incarcerated at Delano State Prison 

in Delano, California, filed a pro se petition for a writ of habeas corpus in the United

States District Court for the Northern District of California on January 9, 2006. 

However, the header on the petition identifies the court which Petitioner intended to file

it in as the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara. Moreover,

this Court has checked the docket of the California Appellate Courts and no habeas

petitions from Petitioner have been filed in the California Court of Appeal or the

California Supreme Court with regard to a Santa Clara state criminal case. As such, it is

apparent that Petitioner mistakenly filed his petition which was intended for the

California state courts in federal court. Accordingly, this petition is DISMISSED

without prejudice. As such, Petitioner’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis is

DENIED as moot (docket no. 3).

IT IS SO ORDERED.
