shall be stricken, and will not be reviewed by this Court. Respondent need not respond to the motion. Petitioner also filed a motion to this Court's order directing Respondent to file a response. (Order to Respond, ECF No. 57; Mot. to Order to Respond, ECF No. 60.) The order directed Respondent to file a response, and Respondent did so in the form of an answer on July 19, 2010. (Answer.) Petitioner was not required to respond to the order, and his motion to the order to respond was not procedurally appropriate. However, Petition may now respond to Respondent's answer by filing a traverse, or alternatively, a motion for extension of time to file the traverse. The Court shall strike the current motion. Respondent need not respond to the motion. Accordingly, Petitioner's motion to objection and motion to order directing Respondent to file a response are stricken. [Docs. 55, 60.]
