IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

NICHOLAUS RAMONE EDWARDS

aka ANSAR MUHAMMAD, 

Petitioner, No. CIV S-04-1127 LKK KJM P

vs.

D.L. RUNNELS, 

 

Respondent. ORDER

 /

Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with an application for writ of

habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On November 8, 2004, the court ordered this action

stayed pending exhaustion of state court remedies with respect to certain claims. Petitioner was

ordered to file a third amended application for writ of habeas corpus raising only claims which

have been presented to and rejected by the California Supreme Court within thirty days of the

completion of exhaustion.

On August 24, 2006, petitioner filed a third amended habeas application titled

“amended petition.” However, petitioner has not demonstrated that he has exhausted state court

remedies with respect to those claims asserted in pages 14 through 17.
