Petitioner has not paid the filing fee or filed a request to proceed in forma pauperis. Petitioner is presently incarcerated at the Santa Ana Central Men's Jail in Orange County related to a crime that also appears to have occurred in Orange County. Though not entirely clear, it does not appear petitioner has been convicted and instead wants the court to find his appointed counsel is ineffective in his pending case. It is also not clear if this is a state or federal crime. Petitioner has also included allegations regarding prior habeas petitions filed in the Eastern District of California, but the allegations of the entire petition are incomprehensible. The petition is dismissed but petitioner is granted leave to file an amended petition within twenty-eight days of service of this order.
