Case No. 16-cv-02296-LB
Petitioner,
13
v.
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
14
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
15
[Re: ECF No. 1 ]
Respondent.

The petitioner, currently incarcerated at the U.S. Penitentiary in Victorville, California,
18
19
commenced this action by filing a document entitled Ҥ 1651 Motion, All Writs Act, for Padilla,,
20
Cooper, Frye, and Johnson.” (ECF No. 1.)1 He has consented to proceed before a magistrate
21
judge. (ECF No. 5.) The court reviewed the filing, determined that the petitioner apparently
22
wanted to challenge his conviction or sentence but had not provided any details about that
23
conviction or sentence. (ECF No. 6.) The court explained that the absence of information about the
24
conviction and sentence prevented the court from analyzing the petition, and ordered the petitioner
25
to file an amendment to his § 1651 petition no later than June 3, 2016 to provide specified
26
information. (ECF No. 6.) The court specifically warned the petitioner that failure to file the

amendment by the deadline may result in the dismissal of this action. (Id.)
The petitioner did not file an amendment to his petition and the deadline by which to do so has
3
long passed. The § 1651 petition (captioned as a “§ 1651 Motion, All Writs Act”) therefore is
4
DENIED because, due to the deficiencies in the original petition/motion, and the petitioner’s
5
failure to cure them by amendment, he has failed to state a claim upon which relief may be
6
granted. (ECF No. 1.) The clerk shall close the file.
