Petitioner,

WARDEN, FEDERAL CORRECTIONAL
COMPLEX,
Respondent.

2:12-cv-114-JMS-WGH

Entry Directing Further Proceedings
I.
It has been determined in No. 2:12-cv-19-WTL-DKL that the petitioner
asserts a claim challenging the duration of his confinement. That claim was
therefore severed from his civil rights complaint and has been docketed as shown
above.
This court may entertain a petition for a writ of habeas corpus Aon behalf of a
person in custody pursuant to the judgment of a State 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); Rose v. Hodges, 423 U.S. 19, 21 (1975).
The information Mr. Moruzin has provided, however, is inadequate to
support either a coherent understanding of the basis for his challenge to his
confinement or a reasonable conclusion that he could be entitled to relief.
II.
In view of the foregoing, petitioner Moruzin shall have through June 11,
2012, in which to file an amended petition for a writ of habeas corpus which
coherently sets forth his claim(s) for relief. He is obligated to do nothing less. Mayle
v. Felix, 545 U.S. 644, 661 (2005) (AHabeas Corpus Rule 2(c) . . . instructs petitioners
to >specify all available grounds for relief= and to >state the facts supporting each
ground.=@). By Aclaims@ as used in this setting are meant the recognized principles of

law which, as applied to the facts and circumstances of the computation of the
petitioner’s sentence, show that computation to be incorrect and violative of the
petitioner=s rights.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
