Petitioner,
vs.
ORDER
C. PFEFFER,
15
Respondent.

/
17
Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, brings this petition for a writ of
18
habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Pending before the court is petitioner’s amended
19
petition (Doc. 7).
20
Petitioner’s original petition included a brief attached wherein he set forth the
21
grounds for relief, but was unsigned. Petitioner was ordered to file an amended petition, which
22
was signed. Petitioner’s amended petition is signed, but fails to include the entire attached brief
23
setting forth his alleged grounds for relief. Neither petition is complete, but together they form a
24
complete petition. Accordingly, the Clerk of the Court will be directed to strike the amended
25
petition as incomplete and re-file the amended petition with the brief from the original petition
26
attached.
