Petitioner,
No. 2:15-cv-01790 WBS AC DP
DEATH PENALTY CASE
v.
RON DAVIS, Warden,
15
ORDER
Respondent.
16
17
The undersigned held a first case management conference on September 18, 2015. Saor
18
E. Stelter and Richard G. Novak appeared for petitioner. Robert C. Nash appeared for
19
respondent. The parties stipulated that absent tolling, the federal habeas petition is due June 24,
20
2016. Respondent confirmed that the record received from the state court is currently in a paper
21
format. The court informed respondent that he shall lodge the state court record electronically by
22
Bate-stamping the entire record, scanning it, and converting it to an optical character recognition
23
(OCR) format.
24
At the conclusion of the case management conference, respondent’s counsel was excused
25
and the undersigned held an ex parte budgeting conference with counsel for petitioner. The
26
results of that budgeting conference are covered in a separate, sealed order.
27
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED as follows:
28
1. By June 24, 2016, unless a different date is subsequently ordered by the court,
1
1
petitioner shall file the petition pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. References to the state
2
court record in the petition shall use the identification system set out in the Notice of
3
Lodging, described below. Each reference shall thus include the docket number for
4
the Notice of Lodging, the attachment number, and the Bate-stamp numbers followed,
5
in parentheses, by the abbreviated name of the volume of the record and any internal
6
pagination. For example, if the Notice of Lodging appears as electronic court filing
7
number 40 and the first attachment is the first 300 pages of the Clerk’s Transcript on
8
Appeal, the citation form would be “ECF No. 40-1, AG00001-AG00300 (CT 1-300)).
9
2. By December 14, 2015, respondent shall file a Notice of Lodging and lodge with the
10
court the state court record as specified below.
11
a. The lodged record shall meet the following requirements:
12
(i)
It shall contain (a) transcripts of the state trial court proceedings; (b)
13
appellant’s and respondent’s briefs on direct appeal to the California
14
Supreme Court, and the opinion or orders of that Court; and (c)
15
petitioner’s and respondent’s briefs in any state court habeas corpus
16
proceedings, and all opinions, orders and transcripts of such
17
proceedings.
18
(ii)
The entire record shall be Bate-stamped. Bate-stamp numbering shall
19
be in the format AG00001, AG00002, etc. to distinguish it from other
20
numbering systems in the record.
21
(iii)
The entire record shall be scanned.
22
(iv)
The entire record shall be converted to an OCR format.
23
(v)
State sealed documents shall be lodged in paper form.
24
b. The Notice of Lodging shall be filed on the court’s electronic filing system. Each
25
item of the state court record shall be lodged as an attachment to the Notice of
26
Lodging. For each separate attachment, the Notice of Lodging shall identify the
27
attachment number, the Bate-stamp numbers, and the name of that part of the
28
record, including its internal pagination, if any. For example, the attachment
2
1
identified above in paragraph 1 would be listed in the Notice of Lodging as:
2
“Attachment #1, AG00001-AG00300 (Clerk’s Transcript 1-300).” The identical
3
identifying information shall also be included as the docket title of each
4
electronically lodged attachment to the Notice of Lodging. To the extent possible,
5
each separate paper volume of the state court record shall be lodged as one
6
attachment.
