IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CHARLES H. CARR,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-04-0584 MCE JFM P

vs.

TOM CAREY, Warden, ORDER

Respondent.

 /

Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding through counsel with an application for

writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. By this action, petitioner challenges a 2002

decision of a panel of the California Board of Prison Terms to deny him parole. On June 13,

2005, petitioner filed a motion for leave to file a second amended petition, for stay and abeyance

pending exhaustion of state remedies as to additional claims, and for subsequent amendment

after exhaustion. Respondent opposes said motion. On June 30, 2005, respondent filed a 1

request for leave to file a supplemental answer together with a proposed supplemental answer

raising the question of subject matter jurisdiction.
