Respondents.

 /

Petitioner, proceeding with appointed counsel, has filed a petition pursuant to 28

U.S.C. §2254. The original pro se petition was filed on 2/23/06; petitioner’s first amended

petition, filed by counsel on behalf of petitioner, was filed on 12/12/07. On 1/04/08, petitioner

filed a motion for stay and abeyance, pending exhaustion of state court remedies as to a claim of

ineffective assistance of counsel, which respondent opposed. Subsequently, on July 22, 2008,

petitioner informed the court that the claim(s) for which petitioner sought a stay in this court had

been exhausted in the state supreme court in the form of a summary denial on July 16, 2008. 

Therefore, the court will vacate petitioner’s pending motion for a stay as moot.

Petitioner, on July 22, 2008, also filed a motion for reconsideration of this court’s
