No. 2:16-cv-2250 MCE GGH
v.
ORDER
RON DAVIS, Warden,
15
Respondent.
16
On July 20, 2017 the petition in this litigation was dismissed and judgment entered by the
17
18
District Court. ECF No. 19. A Certificate of Appealability was denied. On August 14, 2017
19
petition filed a Notice of Appeal which contained it its text request for a Certificate of
20
Appealability and appointment of counsel to assist in his appeal. EC No. 21. The requests appear
21
to be addressed to this court, rather than the Court of Appeals. A Certificate of Appeal has been
22
denied by this court, and petitioner is advised to seek further relief from the Court of Appeal.
If it was indeed petitioner’s intent to seek other relief from this court, he is advised that
23
24
once a Notice of Appeal is filed, jurisdiction becomes vested in the Court of Appeals and this
25
Court cannot address further requests for action. See In re Padilla, 222 F.3d 1184, 1190 (9th Cir.
26
2000); Lopez v. Newport Beach Police Department, 2017 WL 729800 (C.D. Cal. 2/27/17).
27
Petitioner may, therefore, file motions with the Appellate Court, but not with this court.
