Petitioner,

v.

Respondent.

1:10-cv-00109-OWW-DLB (HC)

ORDER GRANTING PETITIONER’S

REQUEST TO SUBMIT A SUPPLEMENTAL

BRIEF AND GRANTING RESPONDENT’S

REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO

FILE A RESPONSE

[Docs. 12 & 13]

Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition for writ of habeas corpus

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. 

Petitioner filed the instant petition for writ of habeas corpus on January 22, 2010, and

challenges a November 6, 2008 decision by the California Board of Parole Hearings denying him

parole. Respondent filed an Answer to the Petition on April 2, 2010, and Petitioner filed a

traverse on May 3, 2010. 

On May 11, 2010, Petitioner requested leave to present supplemental briefing in light of

the Ninth Circuit’s recent decision in Hayward v. Marshall, 2010 WL 1664977 (9th Cir. 2010). 

Petitioner attached the supplemental brief to his request and applied Hayward to the facts of his

case. 

In light of the recent decision in Hayward, the Court will grant Petitioner’s request to

submit a supplemental brief and it will be considered when a determination of the merits is

rendered.
