Petitioner, a prisoner of the State of California, has filed a habeas corpus petition
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. The case was stayed in January 2011 so that Petitioner
could exhaust his new claims. On March 29, 2012, Petitioner moved to lift the stay in this
case and filed an amended petition containing his newly-exhausted claims. On April 9,
2012, the stay was lifted and Respondent was ordered to show cause why the amended
petition should not be granted. On April 18, 2012, Petitioner filed a “notice of
abandonment” and accompanying declaration. These documents were signed by Petitioner
on May 27, 2010, and Petitioner had previously filed them in this case in July 2010. As a
result, this document appears to have been filed in error. If Petitioner truly wants to have
this case dismissed instead of stayed, petitioner shall promptly file a motion for voluntary
dismissal in this matter.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
