UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

TROY HOLLOWELL,

Petitioner,

v.

ROBERT FOX,

Respondent.

No. 2:16-cv-0748 CKD P

ORDER 

On April 12, 2016, Mr. Hollowell filed a document titled “Petition For Writ of Habeas 

Corpus.” However, the caption of the document indicates Mr. Hollowell meant to file the 

document in the “California Court of Appeal, Third District.” Further, the form used by Mr. 

Hollowell for his “petition” is one generated by the Judicial Council of California, not this or 

another federal court. Finally, nothing in the document filed by Mr. Hollowell suggests he has 

exhausted state court remedies with respect to his claim, which he must do before obtaining relief 

in this court. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254(b)(1).
