NO. CIV S-06-1380 GEB GGH P

 ORDER

Claim 8 (alleging a due process violation when the trial court admitted

evidence of petitioner’s brother gang affiliation and prior arrest for possession of a gun)

has been voluntarily dismissed by petitioner from the pending petition, rendering moot the

motion to dismiss for failure to exhaust that claim. The motion to dismiss, filed on

11/05/07, is therefore VACATED and respondent must file an answer as to the remaining

claims within thirty days. Thereafter, petitioner will have thirty days to file a

reply/traverse.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: 01/28/08 /s/ Gregory G. Hollows
