RAY HOBBS, Director,
Arkansas Department of Correction

RESPONDENT

ORDER
Respondent has filed a Response arguing that Petitioner’s 28 U.S.C. § 2254
habeas claims should be dismissed because: (1) most of the claims are procedurally
defaulted due to Petitioner’s failure to properly raise them in state court; and (2) the
remaining claims were reasonably adjudicated by the state courts. Doc. 6. A Reply
to the Response would be helpful to resolution of this action.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED THAT Petitioner is directed to file, on or
before October 10, 2014, a Reply addressing the arguments for dismissal raised in
the Response.
DATED THIS 10th DAY OF September, 2014.
