FINDINGS AND

RECOMMENDATIONS

[Doc. 19]

Petitioner is a federal prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition for writ of habeas

corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Section 2241. 

On March 24, 2006, the court entered an order directing Petitioner to complete the

form for filing a Section 2241 habeas corpus petition and to file it with this court within

thirty days. Petitioner did not file the completed form in this case or otherwise respond to the

court’s order.

On July 24, 2006, the court entered findings and recommendations that this action be

dismissed for Petitioner’s failure to obey the court’s order of March 24, 2006. The court

granted Petitioner thirty days to file objections.

On July 31, 2006, Petitioner filed a letter with the court stating that there must be a

mistake because he has filed a Section 2241 habeas corpus petition in case number

06CV00391 OWW WMW HC. 

After examining the court record, the court finds that in response to the court’s order

in 05CV0543 AWI WMW HC, Petitioner timely filed a Section 2241 on the correct form. 

Petitioner, however, failed to put the case number on his petition. Due to this error by

Petitioner, the petition was opened by the court as a new case - 06CV0391 OWW WMW

HC. 

Accordingly, the Clerk of the Court is HEREBY DIRECTED to do the following:

1) Transfer all documents from 06CV0391 OWW WMW HC into 05CV0543 AWI

WMW HC;

2) Administratively close 06CV0391 OWW WMW HC.

It is FURTHER ORDERED that the court’s findings and recommendations entered

July 24, 2006, are VACATED.

Petitioner shall have only one Section 2241 case pending before this court, which is 

05CV0543 AWI WMW HC. Petitioner is cautioned that any further materials filed with this

court MUST have this case number clearly marked on them.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
