Case No. 94-cv-01997-PJH
ORDER MODIFYING JUNE 10, 2016
ORDER RE BRIEFING SCHEDULE
FOR REMAINING CLAIMS
Re: Dkt. No. 247
On June 10, 2016, the Court adopted the parties' proposed briefing schedule for Petitioner's
12
13
penalty phase claims. ECF Doc. No. 247. The Court now MODIFIES the June 10, 2016 Order
14
as follows:
(1) On or before March 17, 2017, Petitioner must file his Opening Brief regarding
15
(A) his claim for ineffective assistance of counsel at the penalty phase, claims 2A,
16
2E, and 2F1;
17
(B) those procedurally defaulted claims for which Petitioner contends that cause
18
19
and prejudice due to ineffective assistance of counsel should excuse the procedural default,
20
claims 16, 19B(e), 19B(f), 19B(aa), and 19B(cc); and
(C) all remaining claims, which the court determines are claims 212 and 22.
21
(2) On or before May 15, 2017, Respondent must file an Opposition.

The court acknowledges Petitioner’s consistent and continuing objection to any and all division
of his claims into "sub-claims" by the State and this Court. See ECF Doc. No. 156 at 10-11 (citing
Harris v. Wood, 64 F.3d 1432, 1438 (9th Cir. 1995) ("[P]rejudice may result from the cumulative
impact of multiple deficiencies.") The reference to sub-parts of claims above does not waive that
objection and is provided solely for ease of reference.

The claim 21 argument in ECF Doc. No. 236 shall be treated as Petitioner's Opening Brief for
that claim. Petitioner may not re-argue claim 21 in his next Opening Brief, but may address any
argument by Respondent in his Reply brief.
1
(3) On or before June 30, 2017, Petitioner must file a Reply.
2
The Court has already disposed of claim 2D (see ECF Doc. No. 245) and will not entertain
3
any more briefing on that claim. The portion of the June 10, 2016 Order relating to claim 2D is
4
therefore VACATED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
