ORDER ADDRESSING PENDING

MOTION

(Docket No. 8)

Petitioner, a California prisoner proceeding pro se, seeks a writ of habeas corpus 

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On January 24, 2008, this Court granted Petitioner’s motion

for stay the petition while he exhausts his additional claims in state court. Petitioner filed

another motion for stay on February 20, 2008. The clerk shall terminate the motion (Docket

No. 8) as MOOT. This action remains stayed until thirty days after the California Supreme

Court’s final decision on Petitioner’s additional claims, as set forth below. 

CONCLUSION

1. Petitioner is cautioned that if he wishes to have this Court consider his 

unexhausted claims, he must have properly presented those claims to the California Supreme

Court within thirty (30) days of the date the order granting the stay was filed, i.e., no later

than February 23, 2008.

2. Once the California Supreme Court has issued a decision on Petitioner’s 

additional claims, and if he has not obtained relief in state court, Petitioner shall promptly

notify this Court within thirty days of the California Supreme Court’s decision by filing a

“Motion to Reopen Action” along with an AMENDED PETITION stating all the claims,

including the newly exhausted claims, that he wishes to present before this Court. The

Amended Petition shall have the caption “AMENDED PETITION” and the case number C

06-3162 JF (PR). 

3. This action has been administratively closed pending the stay of this action. 

This had no legal effect and was purely a statistical procedure. When Petitioner informs the

Court that he has exhausted his additional claims as set forth above, the case will be

administratively re-opened. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
