CORRECTION,

Respondent.
RULING ON AMENDED PETITION FOR WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS [Doc. 5]
HAIGHT, Senior District Judge:
I. INTRODUCTION
Pro se prisoner Courtney Green, currently incarcerated in Osborn Correctional Facility
("Osborn"), a state prison located in Somers, Connecticut, was sentenced in Connecticut Superior
Court to twenty-one (21) years of imprisonment after pleading guilty to three counts of assault in the
first degree by discharge of a firearm in violation of Conn. Gen. Stat. § 53a-59(a)(5). His maximum
release date is 11/28/2027.1
Pending before the Court is Green's "Amended Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus" [Doc.
5] pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241, seeking relief from detention which he alleges violates the Eighth
Amendment of the Constitution. Doc. 5 (Amended Habeas Corpus Petition), at 1. Specifically,
1
According to the case record in state court, on July 19, 2008, the Petitioner shot three men
outside of a bar and strip club known as "Harry O's" on Selleck Street in Stamford, Connecticut.
1
Green asserts that he should receive compassionate release from Osborn – "immediate release
and/or home confinement" – because he has "serious pre-existing medical conditions which the
Centers for Disease Control ("CDC") [the nation's health protection agency] has determined puts
[sic] him at a significantly higher risk of severe disease and death if he were to contract Coronavirus
Disease 19." Id. at 2 (¶ 6). Green names Angel Quiros, the Commissioner of Correction of the State
of Connecticut, as Respondent because "Quiros currently has immediate custody over [P]etitioner
and is a policy maker for the State of Connecticut." Id. (¶ 5).
In support of his Petition, Green alleges that he is "above the age 35," id. (¶ 4), and "suffers
from hypertension and a compromised immune system," id. at 3 (¶ 11). Moreover, at Osborn, he
"shares showers, phones, and common areas with over fifty other people, with over twenty of them
testing positive for COVID-19, including two prisoners [who] test[ed] positive for COVID-19" on
June 29, 2020. Id. at 2 (¶ 4). Green further alleges that he has been placed in a separate housing
unit, J-1, where he is quarantined with inmates who refused to take the COVID-19 test. Id. at 4
(¶ 11). Also, various correctional officers at Osborn refuse to wear face masks, citing the health
condition exemption in an executive order by Governor Lamont (which states that an individual is
excused from wearing a face mask if he has a medical condition) and/or the fact that the correctional
officers' collective bargaining agreement does not require them to wear face masks. Id. (¶14).
On information and belief, Green alleges that Correction Officer ("CO") Cutler tested
positive for COVID-19 and CO Browne exhibited symptoms of the disease. Id. at 5 (¶¶ 18-20).
Green also states that various inmates, including first shift kitchen workers and two inmates housed
with him in J-1 unit, Johnson and Ackerman, tested positive for COVID-19 on October 25, 2020.
Id. at 6 (¶¶ 23-27). Furthermore, Green recounts that two inmates with COVID-19 were moved to
2
B-block but Osborn failed to "comply with public health guidelines" by, for example, failing to
provide Personal Protective Equipment ("PPE") for Green, who is "currently required to clean the
[J-1] unit" as a "tierman" in that unit. Id. (¶¶ 28, 31). Green also states that Osborn has failed to
disinfect and sanitize the facility upon receiving the two inmates' positive COVID-19 results. Id. at
7 (¶ 33).
Based on the foregoing alleged facts, Green claims that Quiros, the Commissioner of
Correction, has violated Green's Eighth Amendment right to be provided humane conditions of
confinement. Id. (¶¶ 35-36). "[A]bsent proof of judicially-recorded findings by clear and convincing
evidence that [Green] poses such a serious risk of flight or danger to others that no other conditions
can mitigate with[in] 24 hours," Green seeks release from custody or transfer to home confinement.
Id. (¶ 37). If he is not granted release upon his paper submissions alone, he requests an evidentiary
hearing and/or oral argument by telephone or video conference. Id. (¶ 38).
II. DISCUSSION
Petitioner Green has moved for compassionate release from prison pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
§ 2241 and 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i), which provides for compassionate release of federal
prisoners in extraordinary and compelling circumstances. However, Green is not a federal prisoner
so cannot bring either a § 2241 claim or § 3582(c) claim.
With respect to § 2241, as the Second Circuit explained in Cook v. New York State Division
of Parole, 321 F.3d 274 (2d Cir. 2003), "[t]he fact that [the petitioner] invoked section 2241 d[oes]
not . . . require the district court to treat it as a section 2241 petition." 321 F.3d at 277. "On the
contrary, if an application that should be brought under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 is mislabeled as a petition
under section 2241, the district court must treat it as a section 2254 application instead. [I]t is the
3
substance of the petition, rather than its form, that governs." Id. at 277-78 (citation and internal
quotation marks omitted).
Pursuant to § 2254, "a district court shall entertain an application for a writ of habeas corpus
in behalf of a person in custody pursuant to the judgment of a State court only on the ground that he
is in custody in violation of the Constitution or laws or treaties of the United States." 28 U.S.C.
§ 2254(a). "A state prisoner . . . not only may, but according to the terms of [S]ection 2254 must,
bring a challenge to the execution of his or her sentence . . . under [S]ection 2254." Cook, 321 F.3d
at 278 (emphasis added). It thus follows that a district court "correctly treat[s] [the Petitioner's]
petition as an application under [S]ection 2254" when that application is filed "in behalf of . . . a
person in custody pursuant to the judgment of a State court . . . on the ground that [the person
applying] is in custody in violation of the Constitution . . . of the United States." Id. (quoting 28
U.S.C. § 2254(a)). As in Cook, that description "characterizes [Green's] petition precisely." Id.
Because Green, a state prisoner, seeks immediate release from incarceration, his application
is appropriately framed as a § 2254 petition for a writ of habeas corpus. See, e.g., Preiser v.
Rodriguez, 411 U.S. 475, 500 (1973) ("[W]hen a state prisoner is challenging the very fact or
duration of his physical imprisonment, and the relief he seeks is a determination that he is entitled
to immediate release or a speedier release from that imprisonment, his sole federal remedy is a writ
of habeas corpus" under § 2254.); Phelps v. Superintendent, Gouverneur Corr. Facility, No. 20 CIV.
10352 (KPF), 2020 WL 7711619, at *1 (S.D.N.Y. Dec. 29, 2020) ("Because Petitioner seeks
immediate release from incarceration, it appears that this application should be construed as a
petition for a writ of habeas corpus under § 2254."); Steward v. Wolcott, No. 20-CV-6282-FPG, 2020
WL 2846949, at *4 (W.D.N.Y. June 2, 2020) ("As other judges have found in similar cases in this
4
District and this Circuit, this Court is bound by the Second Circuit's holding in Cook and the plain
language of Section 2254.") (citing Griffin v. Cook, No. 20-CV-589, 2020 WL 2735886, at *4-5 (D.
Conn. May 26, 2020) (collecting cases)); Jenkins v. Duncan, No. 02-CV-673, 2003 WL 22139796,
at *3 (N.D.N.Y. Sept. 16, 2003) ("Since Jenkins is a state prisoner challenging the execution of his
sentence, this proceeding is properly considered under, and is necessarily subject to, the laws
governing habeas petitions brought under 28 U.S.C. § 2254.").
When a court considers a petition under § 2254, the issue arises as to exhaustion of remedies.
Unlike § 2241, § 2254 expressly imposes an exhaustion requirement. The Second Circuit has stated
that "Section 2254(b)(1) requires state prisoners to exhaust all available state court remedies before
filing a Section 2254 petition, whereas Section 2241 contains no such exhaustion requirement," and
“[h]ad Congress intended to make Section 2241 available to state prisoners, it would likely have
required, in the interests of comity, that state prisoners challenging the execution of their
state-imposed sentences first exhaust their remedies in the state courts." James v. Walsh, 308 F.3d
162, 167 (2d Cir. 2002).2
2
Furthermore, even if Green's petition were construed under § 2241, there would be a
necessity for him to exhaust his state court remedies before proceeding in federal court. "Exhaustion
in the context of Section 2241 habeas petitions is a judge-made rule . . . ." See Martinez-Brooks v.
Easter, 459 F. Supp. 3d 411, 436-37 (D. Conn. 2020). "While 28 U.S.C. Section 2241 does not by
its own terms require the exhaustion of state remedies as a prerequisite to the grant of federal habeas
relief, decisional law has superimposed such a requirement in order to accommodate principles of
federalism." Id. at 437 (quoting U.S. ex rel. Scranton v. State of New York, 532 F.2d 292, 294 (2d
Cir. 1976))). See also Lagan v. Edge, No. 20-CV-2221 (AMD), 2020 WL 3403109, at *4 (E.D.N.Y.
June 19, 2020) ("[T]he Second Circuit has held that federal prisoners must exhaust their
administrative remedies before seeking habeas relief under § 2241.") (citing Carmona v. U.S. Bureau
of Prisons, 243 F.3d 629, 634 (2d Cir. 2001)). Otherwise, Green would be required to demonstrate
that "exhaustion in state court would be futile, impossible, or subject him to undue prejudice." Carter
v. Fields, No. 19-CV-5364 (PKC), 2020 WL 5517241, at *4 (E.D.N.Y. Sept. 14, 2020) (citing
Steward, 2020 WL 3574617, at *3).
5
Because Green seeks § 2254 habeas relief, the Court will not consider granting his
application absent proof that he "has exhausted the remedies available in the courts of the State." 28
U.S.C. § 2254(b)(1)(A). See also O'Sullivan v. Boerckel, 526 U.S. 838, 842 (1999) ("Before a
federal court may grant habeas relief to a state prisoner [under § 2254], the prisoner must exhaust
his remedies in state court."); Coleman v. Thompson, 501 U.S. 722, 731 (1991) (The exhaustion
requirement under § 2254 is "grounded in principles of comity; in a federal system, the States should
have the first opportunity to address and correct alleged violations of state prisoner's federal rights.");
Rose v. Lundy, 455 U.S. 509, 515 (1982) ("[A]s a matter of comity, federal courts should not
consider a claim in a habeas corpus petition until after the state courts have had an opportunity to
act."); Williams v. Reiser, No. 17CV1040 (JLS) (HBS), 2020 WL 3097181, at *3 (W.D.N.Y. June
11, 2020) ("Section 2254 requires a petitioner to show that he 'exhausted the remedies available in
the courts of the State' before a federal court will consider the request for relief") (quoting 28 U.S.C.
§2254(b)(1)(A)).
Section 2254(b)(1)(A)'s exhaustion requirement will afford "the state court[ ] . . . the first
opportunity to review [Green’s COVID habeas claims] and provide any necessary relief.”
O'Sullivan, 526 U.S. at 844. Exhaustion will also ensure that if Green's COVID habeas petition
eventually returns to federal court, it will "be accompanied by a complete factual record to aid [the
Court] in [its] review." Rose, 455 U.S. at 519. A full factual record is important due to the "rapidly
changing conditions in prison and the evolving steps that prisons are taking to meet the
unprecedented challenges presented by the pandemic."3 Elleby v. Smith, No. 20-cv-2935, 2020 WL
3
For example, contrary to Green's allegation that "[t]here is no vaccine against COVID-19
and no known medication to prevent or treat infection," Doc. 5, at 3 (¶ 7), Connecticut media has
recently reported that COVID-19 vaccinations are under way at Connecticut state prisons. See, e.g.,
6
2611921, at *5 (S.D.N.Y. May 22, 2020).
To exhaust state remedies, Green must "fairly present [his] federal claims to the state courts
. . . to give the state the opportunity to pass upon and correct alleged violations of its prisoners'
federal rights." McCray v. New York, 573 F. App'x 22, 23 (2d Cir. 2014) (quoting Carvajal v. Artus,
633 F.3d 95, 104 (2d Cir. 2011)). He will have exhausted his constitutional claims once he has
"presented [them] to the highest state court from which a decision can be obtained." Lewis v.
Bennett, 328 F. Supp. 2d 396, 403 (W.D.N.Y. 2004) (citing Morgan v. Bennett, 204 F.3d 360, 369
(2d Cir. 2000)). With respect to Green's COVID-19 habeas claims, where the relief sought is not
based upon the trial court record of his criminal proceeding, he may, for example, exhaust his claim
by filing a collateral post-conviction motion.4 Alternatively, he may file a writ of habeas corpus in
the trial court and seek review of any decision denying that petition. See, e.g., Elleby, 2020 WL
2611921, at *3.
In making this ruling, the Court is mindful that the Second Circuit has cautioned district
judges regarding sua sponte conversion of habeas motions without first providing the petitioner with
an opportunity to oppose conversion or withdraw the motion. See, e.g., Adams v. United States, 155
F.3d 582, 583 (2d Cir.1998) (per curiam) ("If a district court receiving a motion under some other
media website articles regarding Covid-19 vaccinations in Connecticut prisons: https://www.

Under these circumstances, Green may present the full factual details in state court for a proper
determination on the merits of his case.

With respect to a motion in state court, this Court voices no opinion as to the applicable
procedural requirements or the likelihood of success on the merits of said motion.

provision of law elects to treat it as a motion under § 2255 and then denies it, that may cause the
movant's subsequent filing of a motion under § 2255 to be barred as a 'second' § 2255. Thus a
conversion, initially justified because it harmlessly assisted the prisoner-movant in dealing with legal
technicalities, may result in a disastrous deprivation of a future opportunity to have a well-justified
grievance adjudicated.").
In particular, in Cook v. New York State Division of Parole, 321 F.3d 274 (2d Cir. 2003), the
Second Circuit held that a state prisoner who challenged the execution of his sentence had to file a
habeas petition pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, rather than pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. 321 F.3d at
278. However, the Court concluded that the district court should have afforded the petitioner the
opportunity to withdraw his § 2241 petition because "converting a pro se habeas petition filed under
a statute not subject to the severe second or successive restrictions of section 2244 . . . could cause
the petitioner to forfeit unnecessarily and unintentionally a meritorious claim." Id. at 282 (internal
quotation marks omitted). The Second Circuit thus reversed the district court's order, which
construed the § 2241 petition as a § 2254 petition, remanding the case to allow the petitioner to
withdraw his petition. Id.
However, in the present circumstances, the Second Circuit's concern regarding forfeiture of
claims does not arise. Rather, the conversion here bears a striking similarity to the conversion in
Hanton v. Lantz, No. 3:09-CV-774 (CFD), 2010 WL 2232642, at *4–5 (D. Conn. May 27, 2010).
In Hanton, District Judge Droney (as he then was) explained:
[T]he concerns raised in Adams and Cook do not apply to Hanton. A prerequisite to
habeas corpus relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 is the exhaustion of available state
remedies. See O'Sullivan v. Boerckel, 526 U.S. 838, 842 (1999); 28 U.S.C.
§ 2254(b)(1)(A). . . . Hanton concedes that the second ground in the amended petition
has not been raised in any state habeas petition. Thus, the second ground is
8
unexhausted and should be dismissed without prejudice. If the Court were to construe
the claim in ground two of the section 2241 amended petition as having been filed
pursuant to section 2254 and dismiss the claim on exhaustion grounds, Hanton would
not be precluded from filing a new section 2254 petition on the ground that it was a
second or successive petition under section 2244(b). See Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S.
473, 485–88 (2000) (holding that habeas petition including new claims filed after an
initial petition was dismissed without prejudice for failure to exhaust remedies is not
a "second or successive" petition for purposes of 28 U.S.C. § 2244). Accordingly, the
court construes the claim in ground two of the amended petition as having been filed
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 and dismisses the claim without prejudice for failure
to exhaust state court remedies. Hanton may file a new section 2254 petition after he
has exhausted his state court remedies as to this claim.
2010 WL 2232642, at *4–5. As the court noted in Hanton, conversion of a § 2241 petition to one
under § 2254 does not preclude the subsequent filing of another § 2254 petition if it is
"unadjudicated on its merits and dismissed for failure to exhaust state remedies," Slack, 529 U.S. at
486. In that event, it is "not a second or successive petition." Id.5 Therefore, notice of conversion
under Adams and Cook need not be given where a habeas claim, although arising under § 2254, is
dismissed for failure to exhaust.
In the case at bar, Green has failed to demonstrate that he exhausted his COVID habeas
claims. Furthermore, the two narrow exceptions to the exhaustion requirement in 28 U.S.C.
§ 2254(b)(1)(A) do not apply in Green's case. A federal court may grant a petitioner's unexhausted
petition for habeas relief if: (1) "there is an absence of State corrective process"; or (2)
"circumstances exist that render [the State corrective process] ineffective to protect the rights of the
5
See also Antrobus v. Hynes, No. 13-CV-2742 (CBA) (LB), 2013 WL 6328131, at *1
(E.D.N.Y. Dec. 4, 2013) (Antrobus's petition is unexhausted and should be dismissed without
prejudice. "Because a dismissal for failure to exhaust is without prejudice, I need not give the 'single
petition' notice and opportunity to withdraw his petition required by Adams.") (quoting Brodeur v.
Warden, Eric M. Taylor Ctr., No. 12 CV 5545 (BMC) (LB), 2013 WL 1686527, at *3 (E.D.N.Y.
Apr. 18, 2013); and citing Hanton, 2010 WL 2232642, at *5).

applicant." 28 U.S.C. § 2254(b)(1)(B)(i)-(ii). In other words, a petitioner need not exhaust his claims
when "there is no further state proceeding for petitioner to pursue" or where such pursuit "would be
futile." See Elleby, 2020 WL 2611921, at *4 (quoting Lurie v. Wittner, 228 F.3d 113, 124 (2d Cir.
2000)). Neither circumstance has been established. As Judge Meyers recently stated in a similar
habeas action, finding no factual basis for exceptions to exhaustion: "My conclusion that [the state
prisoner's] petition must be dismissed for failure to exhaust [his or] her state court remedies as
required under section 2254 is consistent with the rulings of many federal courts nationwide that
have addressed similar petitions by sentenced state prisoners in response to the COVID-19
pandemic." Griffin v. Cook, No. 3:20-CV-589 (JAM), 2020 WL 2735886, at *5 (D. Conn. May 26,
2020). Accord Williams v. Reiser, No. 17CV1040 (JLS) (HBS), 2020 WL 3097181, at *4 (W.D.N.Y.
June 11, 2020) ("Courts may excuse petitioners from exhausting their claims when relief is truly
unavailable, but excusing exhaustion here, where state courts are available, would turn the habeas
system upside down. Other courts have reached similar conclusions when faced with habeas petitions
seeking release from state custody based on the COVID-19 pandemic.") (citation and internal
quotation marks omitted).
Finally, as noted above, the Court concludes that Green may not bring his application in the
form of a motion for compassionate release under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A), which he also cited
in his petition. That provision is applicable only to federal prisoners.6 See Phelps v. Superintendent,
6
Section 3582 permits a district court to "modify" a term of federal imprisonment for, inter
alia, "extraordinary and compelling reasons" if the defendant has "fully exhausted" certain
administrative rights with the Bureau of Prisons. See 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A). As explained in
a recent COVID-19 "compassionate release" case by Judge Rakoff :
Compassionate release allows a court to reduce a term of imprisonment where,
among other things, "extraordinary and compelling reasons warrant such a
10
Gouverneur Corr. Facility, No. 20 CIV. 10352 (KPF), 2020 WL 7711619, at *1 (S.D.N.Y. Dec. 29,
2020) ("Because Petitioner is in custody pursuant to a state court judgment, § 3582(c)(1)([A]) is
inapplicable to him."). Green is in custody pursuant to a state court judgment, and cannot assert a
§ 3582(c) claim.
Given the foregoing, the Court interprets Green's COVID claim as a petition for writ of
habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254, which is subject to immediate dismissal for failure to
exhaust his state court remedies. He may present his request for relief to a state court.7 He is
reminded that thereafter should he bring a federal claim – after the present dismissal of his habeas
petition without prejudice for failure to exhaust remedies – that petition will not be deemed a
reduction." 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A). Prior to the enactment of the FIRST STEP
Act, only the Director of the BOP could file a motion for compassionate release. The
FIRST STEP Act amended this provision to permit an inmate to file a motion in
federal court seeking compassionate release, but only after either exhausting
administrative review of a BOP denial of his request or after 30 days had passed
since he made his request, whichever was earlier.
United States v. Haney, 454 F. Supp. 3d 316, 318 (S.D.N.Y. 2020).
7
The Court notes that even if Green's habeas petition were properly before this Court, the
factual record necessary to make an evaluation regarding "compassionate relief" is inadequate. He
states that he is "above the age [of] 35," which hardly qualifies as an advanced age. Doc. 5, at 2
(¶ 4). He also asserts that he "has hypertension," id., a condition which, standing alone, has been
found insufficient by various federal courts to establish grounds for COVID-related compassionate
release. See, e.g. United States v. Petersen, No. 3:16-CR-109 (SRU), 2020 WL 7129705, at *8 (D.
Conn. Dec. 3, 2020) ("[S]everal courts have denied inmates' motions for compassionate release when
the inmates' only asserted health condition is hypertension and the inmate has failed to show that the
BOP's treatment was in some way inadequate."), reconsideration denied, No. 3:16-CR-109 (SRU),
2021 WL 217425 (D. Conn. Jan. 21, 2021); United States v. Thomas, 471 F. Supp. 3d 745, 749-50
(W.D. Va. 2020) ("Hypertension, or high blood pressure, a condition that the CDC estimates impacts
43.8% of the United States adult population, alone does not constitute an 'extraordinary and
compelling reason.'"); United States v. Ackerman, No. CR 11-740-KSM-1, 2020 WL 5017618, at
*5 (E.D. Pa. Aug. 25, 2020)("Where, as here, there is no indication that the defendant's hypertension
cannot be properly controlled via medication or other appropriate medical care, courts routinely hold
that compassionate release is not warranted.").

"second or successive" petition for purposes of 28 U.S.C. § 2244. His claim is thus not forfeited.
III. CONCLUSION
For the foregoing reasons, Green's petition for a writ of habeas corpus [Doc. 5] is DENIED
without prejudice for failure to exhaust state court remedies. The case is DISMISSED and the Clerk
is directed to close the file.
Because jurists of reason would not find it debatable that Green failed to exhaust his state
court remedies, any appeal from this ruling would not be taken in good faith. A certificate of
appealability will not issue. See Slack, 529 U.S. at 484.8

"When the district court denies a habeas petition on procedural grounds without reaching
the prisoner's underlying constitutional claim, a COA [certificate of appealability] should issue when
the prisoner shows, at least, that jurists of reason would find it debatable whether the petition states
a valid claim of the denial of a constitutional right and that jurists of reason would find it debatable
whether the district court was correct in its procedural ruling." Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484
