United States District Court

Eastern District of California

James McElroy, 

Petitioner, Civ. S 05-1749 DFL PAN P

vs. Order

United States Sentencing and

Parole Commission,

 

Respondent. 

-oOoPetitioner, a prisoner without counsel, is “serving his

federal time” in Mule Creek State Prison in Ione, California. He

commenced this action in the United States District Court for the

Southern District of New York, challenging the execution of his 60-

year sentence imposed in United States v. Coonan, et al., No. 87

Cr. 249 (WK) (S.D.N.Y. May 11, 1998), and claiming the failure to

parole him violates due process. That court construed the case as

a habeas petition and transferred it to this court as the one

having jurisdiction over petitioner’s custodian, citing Braden v.
