UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SAMMY MORGAN,

Petitioner,

v.

T. TUSINO, Warden,

Respondent.

No. 2:20-cv-00605 TLN GGH P

ORDER

Petitioner is a federal prisoner proceeding in pro se with a petition for a writ of habeas 

corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. On April 1, 2020, the undersigned issued findings and 

recommendations recommending petitioner’s habeas petition be dismissed as duplicative. ECF 

No. 5. Upon review of the court’s records, the undersigned verified that petitioner had a pending 

habeas petition in case Morgan v. Tusino, 2:20-cv-00603-CKD challenging the same 2019 

conviction. Id. at 2. 

Petitioner has now filed a motion to file an amended habeas petition. ECF No. 6. 

However, petitioner’s proposed amended petition nevertheless challenges his 2019 conviction in 

the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California for possession of a firearm 

by a felon. Accordingly, petitioner’s motion to file an amended petition will be denied. The 

findings and recommendations filed on April 1, 2020 remain unaltered.
