Petitioner is a state federal prisoner proceeding in propria persona with a petition for writ of
habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241.

19

The instant petition was filed on March 16, 2015. (Doc. 1). On April 6, 2015, the Court

20

ordered Respondent to file a response to the petition within sixty days. (Doc. 5). On April 13, 2015,

21

Petitioner filed the instant motion to supplement the petition with a document purporting to identify

22

the government-insured branches of the Provident Bank of Maryland. (Doc. 8). Because this

23

document arguably is relevant to the claims raised in the petition, and because no prejudice would

24

inure to Respondent by granting the motion, the Court will grant Petitioner’s motion to supplement the

25

petition with the proffered document.
