Petitioner is a federal prisoner proceeding pro se in a habeas corpus action pursuant to 28

18 U.S.C. § 2241.
19

On October 2, 2014, Petitioner filed a motion to expedite proceedings in the pending

20 petition for writ of habeas corpus. (ECF No. 3). As Petitioner correctly states, the instant action
21 is pending before this Court.

However, the Court does not have an expedited calendar.

22 Petitioner is advised that the Court acts to resolve all pending cases in the most efficient manner
23 possible. The Court is aware of Petitioner’s pending petition. Nevertheless, the Court’s docket
24 of pending cases is substantial, and the Court must act first on those matters that have been
25 pending the longest.
