ORDER

R. L. Rhodes,

13

Respondent.

14

Currently pending before the Court is Petitioner Jermaine L. Gadson’s Request for

15

Transfer (Doc. 20). At the time Petitioner filed his Petition (Doc. 1), Petitioner was an

16

inmate incarcerated at the Federal Correctional Institution in Tucson, Arizona (“FCI–

17

Tucson”). See Petition (Doc. 1). In light of Petitioner’s incarceration at FCI–Tucson at

18

the time of the Petition’s filing, this Court retains jurisdiction to consider the Petition.

19

See Francis v. Rison, 894 F.2d 353 (9th Cir. 1990) (“jurisdiction attaches on the initial

20

filing for habeas corpus relief, and it is not destroyed by a transfer of the petitioner and

21

the accompanying custodial change.”) (citation omitted). Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY

22

ORDERED that Petitioner’s Request for Transfer (Doc. 20) is DENIED.

23

FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court shall send Petitioner a copy of the

24

docket sheet in this matter.
