             Petitioner,                                             State of montane

       v.                                                           ORDER

 PETER BLUDWORTH,

             Respondent.

       Self-represented Petitioner Tyree Kilo Selage has filed a Petition for Writ of Habeas
Corpus, indicating that his incarceration is illegal because the Yellowstone County District
Court has not resentenced him, pursuant to § 46-18-904(3), MCA, after the Sentence
Review Division (SRD) modified his prison sentence to a sentence to the Department of
Corrections on June 7, 2021. Selage includes several attachments, such as the SRD's
decisions and a sentence calculation. He points to an August 29, 2023 letter where the
District Court responded that "an amended judgment . . . will not be prepared." Upon
review, we deem it appropriate to require a response to Selage's Petition. Therefore,
      IT IS ORDERED that the Attorney General or counsel for the Department of
Correction is GRANTED ten days from the date of this Order in which to prepare, file, and
serve a written response together with appropriate documentary exhibits.
      The Clerk is directed to provide a copy of this Order to counsel of record and to
Tyree Kilo Selage personally.
              DATED this AV
                                th day of September, 2023.

                                                                 Justice
