IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

WAYNE ORLANDO TUCKER, No. CIV S-06-0326-LKK-CMK-P

Petitioner, 

vs. FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

FELKER, et al.,

Respondents.

 /

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, brings this petition for a writ of

habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. This case was originally referred to Judge John F.

Moulds, but was referred to the undersigned due to the pendency of Tucker v. Propser, no. CIV

S-04-0235-LKK-CMK-P. Proceedings in Tucker v. Propser are currently stayed pending

resolution of a related state court case. Having reviewed the petition filed in the instant case, the

court finds that it is duplicative of the prior case. In particular, petitioner has not provided any

evidence that the related state court case has been resolved, such that his federal petition can

properly proceed.

Based on the foregoing, the undersigned recommends that this action be

dismissed as duplicative of case no. CIV S-04-0235-LKK-CMK-P.
