IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

Respondents. )

)

On February 9, 2007, Petitioner filed a Motion to Modify

Remedial Portion of the Court’s February 8, 2007 Order, a Motion for

Immediate Release, and an Application for Order Shortening Time for

Respondent to Respond and for Hearing on Petitioner’s Motion for Order

of Immediate Release (“Application”). On February 13, 2007,

Respondent filed an Opposition to Petitioner’s Application for Order

Shortening Time, arguing inter alia that Petitioner waived objection

to Respondent’s argument that the matter should be returned to the

Governor for reconsideration, and that therefore Petitioner’s

Application should be denied.

In Petitioner’s Reply to Respondent’s Objections to the

Magistrate Judge’s Findings and Recommendations, Petitioner stated

that he “does not object to having the matter resubmitted to the

Governor.” (Reply at 17; Feb. 8 Order at 4.) Because of Respondent’s

request that the matter be resubmitted to the Governor and

Petitioner’s statement that he did not oppose that request, the matter

was resubmitted to the Governor. (Feb. 8 Order at 4.) However,

Petitioner now argues that when he agreed to resubmit the matter to

the Governor, it was his understanding that he would have been

released before the Governor had an opportunity to reconsider the

release decision. (Mot. for Release at 7.) Petitioner could have,

but did not, make that position clear in his Reply. (See Reply at

17.) Nevertheless, Petitioner’s request for a shortened briefing

schedule and an earlier hearing date than is prescribed in Local Rule

78-230 is granted as follows: Respondent shall file any opposition to

Petitioner’s Motion for Immediate Release on or before February 20,

2007, Petitioner shall file any reply by February 22, 2007; and

hearing on the Motion for Immediate Release is set for Monday,

February 26, 2007, at 10:00 a.m. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: February 13, 2007
