No. 2:17-cv-2525 JAM AC P

Petitioner,
v.

ORDER

SCOTT KERNAN, et al.,
Respondents.

16
17

Petitioner, a former state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, has filed a

18

motion for sanctions, ECF No. 50, and a motion for a court order preventing him from having to

19

submit to a polygraph examination, ECF No. 53. The motion for sanctions appears to assert that

20

petitioner’s release date has been miscalculated, ECF No. 50, while the motion for court order

21

appears to seek relief from one of petitioner’s conditions of parole, ECF No. 53. Both of these

22

issues are outside the scope of the petition and are therefore not properly before this court.

23

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

24

1. Petitioner’s motion for sanctions, ECF No. 50, is denied.

25

2. Petitioner’s motion for a court order, ECF No. 53, is denied.
