19 PETITION BARRED BY GATEKEEPER PROVISION 

The instant Petition is not the first Petition for a Writ ofHabeas Corpus Petitioner 

21 .. has submitted to this Court challenging his conviction in San Diego Superior Court 

2211 CR76494 for five counts ofmurder. On February 11,2003, Petitioner filed in this Court 

23 II a Petition for Writ ofHabeas Corpus in case No. 03cv0286. In that petition, Petitioner 

24 II challenged his conviction in San Diego Superior Court case No. SCR 76494 as well. On

1 In the instant Petition, Petitioner states he was convicted on September 17, 1990. (Pet. at 1.) 

28 II 	 However, as discussed at length in this Court's Order denying Petitioner's 2003 Petition, Petitioner 

challenged his 1990 conviction via federal petition for habeas corpus, which was granted by this Court 

on April 29, 1996. (See Nadi v. Hill, No. 95cv0022 J (AJB ) aff'd Nadd; v. Hill, 152 F.3d 928 (9th Cir.

2005 in case No. 03cv0286 LAB (RBB) [ECF No. 43].) Petitioner appealed that 

determination. On March 28, 2006, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals denied 

Petitioner's request for certificate ofappealability and dismissed the appeal. (See Order 

in Naddi v. Garcia, No. 05-56104 (9th Cir. Mar. 23, 2006) [ECF No. 53].) 

Petitioner is now seeking to challenge the same conviction he challenged in his 

prior federal habeas petition. Unless a petitioner shows he or she has obtained an Order 

from the appropriate court of appeals authorizing the district court to consider a 

successive petition, the petition may not be filed in the district court. See 28 U.S.C. § 

2244(b)(3)(A). Here, there is no indication the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has 

granted Petitioner leave to file a successive petition. 

CONCLUSION 

Because there is no indication Petitioner has obtained permission from the Ninth 

Circuit Court of Appeals to file a successive petition, this Court cannot consider his 

Petition. Accordingly, the Court DISMISSES this action without prejudice to Petitioner 

filing a petition in this court if he obtains the necessary order from the Ninth Circuit 

Court ofAppeals. For Petitioner's convenience, the Clerk of Court shall attach to this 

Order a blank Ninth Circuit Application for Leave to File Second or Successive Petition. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

DATED: IZ/zdl 

1998). Naddi was retried and convicted in June 1999. See Order filed May 16, 2005 in case No. 

03cv0286 LAB (RBB) [EeF No. 43].
