IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

BERNARD TAYLOR,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-07-2253 WBS EFB P

vs.

K. DICKINSON,

Respondent. ORDER

 /

On May 1, 2008, petitioner filed a first set of interrogatories. As respondent correctly

points out in the May 14, 2008, opposition, a habeas petitioner is not entitled to discovery as of

right. Petitioner has not filed a motion for leave to conduct discovery, nor could this document

be construed as such a motion.

Furthermore, interrogatories, requests for production, requests for admission, responses

and proofs of service thereof “shall not be filed with the clerk until there is a proceeding in

which the document or proof of service is at issue. When required in a proceeding, only that part

of the request and response that is in issue shall be filed.” Local Rules 33-250(c), 34-250(c) &

36-250(c).
