IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

BRANDON CHISM, 

Petitioner, No. CIV S-03-1793 MCE KJM P

vs.

R.K. SCRIBNER, ORDER

Respondent.

 /

Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding with retained counsel on an application

for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Counsel has filed a motion to be

relieved because of a conflict of interest which petitioner has declined to waive. 

In addition, counsel and petitioner have asked that counsel be appointed for

petitioner. The court does not find the interests of justice require the appointment of counsel. 

See Tanner v. McDaniel, F.3d (No. 06-15405 9th Cir. 7/13/07).
