executed the December 2008 Warrant, and Petitioner has been unsuccessful in finding another method for properly executing the it. (Application at 1-2.) Petitioner requests that the Court order the U.S. Marshals to act on and execute the December 2008 Warrant that has been outstanding for over 18 months.

Upon review of Petitioner's Application, the Court finds good cause to grant Petitioner's request and directs the U.S. Marshals to immediately act on and execute the December 2008 Warrant. Accordingly, the U.S. Marshal for the Northern District of California shall immediately execute the December 2008 Warrant for the arrest of Respondent.
