Corpus Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. The Petition was filed on the appropriate Courtapproved form, but Petitioner has failed to complete the sections of that form regarding

grounds for relief. Accordingly, the Petition will be dismissed with leave to file an amended

petition setting forth specific grounds for relief.

Petitioner should take notice that if he fails to timely comply with every provision of

this Order, or any order of the Court entered in this matter, the Petition and action will be

dismissed pursuant to Rule 41(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. See Ferdik v.

Bonzelet, 963 F.2d 1258 (9th Cir.) (district court may dismiss action for failure to comply

with any order of the court).

part of the original Petition by reference. Any amended petition submitted by Petitioner

should be clearly designated as such on the face of the document.

prejudice and without further notice to Petitioner, if Petitioner fails to file an Amended

Petition within thirty (30) days of the date this Order is filed.

(3) That the Clerk of Court shall provide to Petitioner the current Court-approved

form for filing a Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241.

(4) That a clear, legible copy of every pleading or other document filed shall

accompany each original pleading or other document filed with the Clerk for use by the

District Judge or Magistrate Judge to whom the case is assigned. Failure to comply with this

requirement may result in the pleading or document being stricken without further notice to

Petitioner.

(5) That at all times during the pendency of this action, Petitioner shall immediately

advise the Court and the United States Marshal of any change of address and its effective

date. Such notice shall be captioned “Notice of Change of Address.” The notice shall

contain only information pertaining to the change of address and its effective date. The

notice shall not include any motions for any other relief. Petitioner shall serve a copy of the

Notice of Change of Address on all opposing parties. Failure to file a Notice of Change of

Address may result in the dismissal of the action for failure to prosecute pursuant to Rule

41(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
