No. 4:13CV1512 CEJ

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter is before the Court on petitioner’s motion for leave to file
additional attachments to his amended petition for writ of habeas corpus. Because
petitioner is not yet in possession of the records which he seeks to file with this Court
and has not identified them specifically, the Court will deny petitioner’s request at
this time.
When petitioner has the records in his possession, he may file a motion for
leave to file the records, and at that time he should specifically identify the additional
records he wishes to file. In accordance with this Court’s CM/ECF Administrative
Procedures Manual, petitioner is required to file, as an attachment to his motion for
leave, copies of the records for the Court’s review. In habeas cases, if the state court
records required by Rule 5 of the Rules Governing 2254 Cases exceed 100 pages, the
records may be filed in paper format instead of a digital interface. If the records

petitioner wishes to file total 100 pages or fewer, they may be electronically filed.
See Admin. Procedures Manual for Case Management/Electronic Case Filing
(CM/ECF), III(D).
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that petitioner’s motion for leave to file
additional attachments to his petition for writ of habeas corpus [Doc. #11] is denied
without prejudice.
Dated this 7th day of November, 2013.

CAROL E. JACKSON
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
