ORDER
Respondent.

17
Petitioner is a condemned state prisoner proceeding with a petition for a writ of habeas
18
19
corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. After new counsel was appointed for petitioner in February
20
2016, the court ordered petitioner’s counsel to file a statement describing the status of these
21
proceedings and a plan for going forward. (ECF No. 266.) On October 27, 2016, petitioner filed
22
that statement. (ECF No. 268.) On December 12, 2016, respondent filed a responsive statement.
23
(ECF No. 270.)
In his October 27 statement, petitioner requests the opportunity to file a reply to
24
25
respondent’s statement. The court finds good cause for the filing of a reply to address
26
respondent’s statement and, if petitioner wishes, to address briefly the effect, if any, of the
27
passage of Proposition 66 on these proceedings.
