A review of the record reflects that on July 2, 2020, the Court issued an order staying

22

these federal proceedings and holding them in abeyance of state exhaustion proceedings. (Doc.

23

70.) Therein, the Court directed that Petitioner pursue state court exhaustion without delay, and

24

file in this Court a motion to lift the stay within thirty (30) days following resolution of the

25

unexhausted claims in state court. (Id. at 12.)
