UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

SHANNON RILEY, 

Petitioner, 

Case No. 15-cv-5071-TEH 

ORDER OF DISMISSAL 

Docket No. 6 

This habeas case filed pro se by a state prisoner was 

dismissed without prejudice for failure to file a petition or 

application to proceed in forma pauperis. Presently pending is 

Petitioner’s timely motion to alter or amend the judgment 

pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e). 

Petitioner states that he filed a habeas petition and an in 

forma pauperis application with the Court on December 16, 2015, 

therefore the case should be reopened. Court records indicate 

that Petitioner did file a habeas petition and in forma pauperis 

application on December 16, 2015, however there was no docket 

number on the filings so they were filed as a new case. See 

Riley v. Biter, 15-5767-TEH (PR). That case concerns a prison 

disciplinary finding and is being transferred to the Eastern 

District of California where Petitioner is incarcerated. Another 

of Petitioner’s cases challenging a prison disciplinary finding 

was also recently transferred. See Riley v. Biter, 15-5072-TEH

(PR). Because the Court has reviewed in another action the 

petition that was intended to be filed in this case, Petitioner’s 

motion to alter or amend the judgment (Docket No. 6) is DENIED. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
