Petitioner Luis Miquel Gonzalez, a state prisoner proceeding without counsel, seeks a writ

18

of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. ECF No. 1. On May 2, 2018, petitioner moved for

19

discovery of his trial court record and his appellate case file. ECF No. 18 at 38-40. On August 2,

20

2019, I granted petitioner’s motion for discovery for the limited purpose of obtaining his appellate

21

case file from his previous attorney.1 ECF No. 24. I also appointed counsel for the petitioner for

22

the limited purpose of discovery. Id. at 3. I ordered the appointed counsel to file a notice

23

indicating the completion of discovery by September 20, 2010. Id. at 5. No such notice has been

24

filed. Considering the foregoing, the court will set this matter for a status conference.
