UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

ADAM SALAS RAMIREZ, 

Petitioner, 

v. 

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF 

CORRECTIONS AND 

REHABILITATION, et al., 

Respondents. 

No. 2:15-cv-0583 AC P 

ORDER 

 On March 13, 2015, this court filed a copy of a January 29, 2015 letter written and sent by 

Mr. Ramirez, a 73-year-old state prisoner at the California Medical Facility, which was addressed 

to Justice Elwood Lui, the Compliance Officer appointed by the Three-Judge Court in the class 

actions Coleman v. Brown, Case No. 2:90-cv-00520 KJM DAD P, and Plata v. Brown, Case No. 

C01-1351 TEH. The letter states that Mr. Ramirez was denied parole on January 7, 2015, after 

appearing at an early suitability hearing under the state’s new elderly parole program. No other 

matters were submitted by Mr. Ramirez. Review of the letter demonstrates that Mr. Ramirez 

sought to be informational – he states, “I write this letter not to complain but just to let you know 

that the Board is not complying with the Court’s ruling.” The court finds that this matter was 

intended not to commence a habeas corpus action in this court, but for review by Justice Lui.
