ORDER

14
Petitioner, a Nevada prisoner, has filed a second application for leave to proceed in forma
15
pauperis (docket #4), which is granted.
16
The petition itself is unclear because petitioner has not set forth each ground for relief on
17
the form, but refers generally to other attachments, including his state habeas petition. It is impossible
18
for the court to decipher the grounds for relief for this federal petition. Accordingly, petitioner has thirty
19
(30) days to complete a new federal petition for writ of habeas corpus on the court-approved form.
20
Under each ground for relief, petitioner may either write out his factual allegations on the form or attach
21
specific portions of his state habeas petition that apply to each ground. Petitioner must make it clear to
22
the court what he alleges under each ground.
23
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that petitioner’s application for leave to proceed in
24
forma pauperis (docket #4) is GRANTED.
25
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk shall send to petitioner a blank petition for
26
writ of habeas corpus form with instructions.

1

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that petitioner has thirty (30) days to submit a new

2

federal petition for writ of habeas corpus on the court-approved form. Petitioner is cautioned that failure

3

to submit a new petition may result in this action being dismissed without prejudice.
