MEMORANDUM
AND ORDER

This matter is before the court on its own motion. On July 31, 2012, the court
ordered Respondent to advise the court of the Nebraska Supreme Court’s entry of
judgment in Petitioner’s pending state-court case, #S-11-439, within seven days of
the court’s entry of judgment. (Filing No. 118.) To date, Respondent has not advised
the court of the status of Petitioner’s state-court case, presumably because the
Nebraska Supreme Court has not yet entered judgment. However, because this case
remains pending and has not been stayed, it is necessary for the parties to update the
court as to the status of the state-court proceedings.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that:
1.
Petitioner and Respondent are directed to file a status report in this
matter within 14 days of the date of this Memorandum and Order. The status report
must advise the court of the status of Petitioner’s pursuit of state-court remedies.
2.
The clerk’s office is directed to set a pro se case management deadline
in this case using the following text: May 10, 2013, deadline for Petitioner and
Respondent to file written status reports regarding state-court action. In addition, the

clerk’s office is directed to set a pro se case management deadline in this case using
the following text: June 1, July 1, August 1, and September 1, 2013: Check on status
of Petitioner’s pending state-court case.
DATED this 23rd day of April, 2013.
BY THE COURT:

s/ Joseph F. Bataillon
United States District Judge
