CV F 01 5997 REC SMS HC 

ORDER DISMISSING PETITIONER’S

AFFIDAVIT ON APPEAL

[Doc. #93]

Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition for writ of habeas corpus

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. 

On September 16, 2005, Petitioner filed a pleading entitled “Affidavit on Appeal.” The Court

has no idea what Petitioner is seeking with this motion. Petitioner cites to California Rules of Court

31(d); however, the California Rules of Court do not apply in federal court. Moreover, the instant

action was terminated on August 5, 2005, with the District Court’s denial of the petition. As the

matter is now pending on appeal before the Ninth Circuit, the Court is also without jurisdiction to

entertain Petitioner’s motion. 

Accordingly, Petitioner’s motion is DISMISSED. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
