UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DOUGLAS DWAYNE GIRLEY,

Petitioner,

v.

GARY SWARTHOUT,

Respondent.

No. 2:12-cv-1938 KJM KJN P

ORDER

On May 20, 2013, respondent was directed to inform the court whether he would 

withdraw the motion to dismiss or file a reply to petitioner’s objections to the March 26, 2013 

findings and recommendations. On May 31, 2013, respondent filed a request to withdraw the 

motion to dismiss and issue a briefing schedule.

Because petitioner may be entitled to relief if the claimed violation of constitutional rights 

is proved, respondent’s request is granted. The motion is deemed withdrawn, the findings and 

recommendations are vacated, and a briefing schedule is issued. .

In accordance with the above, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Respondent’s request to withdraw the motion to dismiss (ECF No. 23) is granted;

2. The October 19, 2012 motion to dismiss (ECF No. 12) is withdrawn;

3. The March 26, 2013 findings and recommendations (ECF No. 20) are vacated;
