3. If petitioner chooses to proceed in accordance with 1 or 2 above, respondent

must file an answer or dispositive motion within 60 days thereafter; petitioner must file any reply

or opposition, as appropriate, within 45 days of service of respondent’s responsive pleading; if

respondent filed a motion, respondent will have 30 days after service of an opposition to file a

reply. 

4. Should petitioner identify unexhausted claims which petitioner will seek to

exhaust, petitioner shall file an amended petition on or before February 22, 2008, setting forth all

claims, exhausted and unexhausted, and shall demonstrate good cause for having failed to

exhaust state court remedies as to any claim which petitioner would seek to exhaust. Petitioner

shall move the court to hold the proceedings in abeyance pending exhaustion of state court

remedies as to the unexhausted claims on or before February 22, 2008; if a stay is ultimately

granted, petitioner must immediately pursue state court exhaustion, that is, within 30 days of the

granting of a stay, and, upon said exhaustion in state court, within 30 days, proceed upon the

amended petition in federal court.

5. Should respondent object to any motion for a stay of proceedings by petitioner

to pursue unexhausted claims, respondent must file any opposition to such a motion within 30

days of service thereof; thereafter, petitioner has 15 days to file any reply.

6. If petitioner intends to make a motion for leave to conduct discovery under the

Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases, Rule 6(a), petitioner must do so within 60 days; if

respondent opposes any such motion respondent must do so within 30 days thereafter;

petitioner’s reply, if any, must be filed within 15 days of any opposition by respondent.
