IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOSHUA MOSES HELLOM, No. CIV S-07-0943-LKK-CMK-P

Petitioner, 

vs. FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Unknown,

Respondent.

 /

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, apparently seeks to file a petition

for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Currently the only document before

the court is petitioner’s May 18, 2007, letter seeking an extension of time within which to file a

petition. 

Petitioner is advised that, except in extraordinary circumstances warranting

equitable tolling, this court cannot grant an extension of time to file his petition. Once petitioner

has prepared his petition, he should send it to the court. Upon receipt, it will be filed and a new

case number will be assigned. In the meantime, the court will recommend that this action be

closed.
