IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

GENNEL EDWARD MILES, JR.,

Petitioner,

v.

W.J. SULLIVAN,

Respondent.

No. 2:19-CV-0377-KJM-DMC-P

ORDER

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

corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit reversed 

the District Court’s decision dismissing Petitioner’s petition as time-barred due to subsequent 

developments in California case law. ECF No. 31. The Ninth Circuit reversed and remanded for 

further proceedings. Id. The Court ordered Respondent to file an answer to the petition within 60 

days. ECF No. 34. Respondent, however, informed the Court that the Ninth Circuit has not yet 

issued a mandate transferring jurisdiction back to this Court. See ECF No. 35. The Court’s order 

issued on July 14, 2021, is thus VACATED as having been issued in error. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: July 20, 2021
