GLEISTON PORCINODE ANDRADE,

Case No. 17-cv-04331-VC (PR)

Plaintiff,
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

v.

Re: Dkt. Nos. 3, 5
DEAN BORDERS,
Defendant.

Petitioner Gleiston Porcinode Andrade is a state prisoner currently incarcerated at the
California Institute for Men. He has filed a pro se petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, challenging his state convictions. Andrade’s motions for leave to proceed
in forma pauperis is granted.
It does not appear from the face of the petition that it is clearly without merit. Good
cause appearing, the Court hereby issues the following orders:
1.

The Clerk of the Court shall serve a copy of this Order and the petition and all

attachments thereto upon Respondent and Respondent’s attorney, the Attorney General of the
State of California. The Clerk also shall serve a copy of this Order on Andrade at his current
address.
2.

No later than sixty days from the date of this Order, Respondent shall file with

this Court and serve upon Andrade an Answer conforming in all respects to Rule 5 of the Rules
Governing Section 2254 Cases, showing cause why a writ of habeas corpus should not be issued.
Respondent shall file with the Answer all portions of the state record that have been transcribed
previously and are relevant to a determination of the issues presented by the petition. If

Andrade wishes to respond to the Answer, he shall do so by filing a Traverse with the Court and
serving it on Respondent within thirty days of his receipt of the Answer. If he does not do so, the
petition will be deemed submitted and ready for decision on the date the Traverse is due.
3.

No later than sixty days from the date of this Order, Respondent may file with this

Court and serve upon Andrade a motion to dismiss on procedural grounds in lieu of an Answer,
as set forth in the Advisory Committee Notes to Rule 4 of the Rules Governing Section 2254
Cases. If Respondent files such a motion, Andrade shall file with the Court and serve on
Respondent an opposition or statement of non-opposition to the motion within thirty days of
receipt of the motion, and Respondent shall file with the Court and serve on Andrade a reply
within fourteen days of receipt of an opposition.
4.

It is Andrade’s responsibility to prosecute this case. He must keep the Court

informed of any change of address by filing a separate paper with the Clerk headed “Notice of
Change of Address,” and must comply with the Court's orders in a timely fashion. He also must
serve on Respondent’s counsel all communications with the Court by mailing a true copy of the
document to Respondent’s counsel.
5.

Extensions of time are not favored, though reasonable extensions will be granted.

Any motion for an extension of time must be filed no later than three days prior to the deadline
sought to be extended.
6. This order terminates docket numbers 3 and 5.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: August 30, 2017
