ORDER
Respondents.

14
This action is a pro se petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254
15
by a Nevada state prisoner. On January 24, 2017, this case was consolidated with petitioner’s
16
earlier-filed case, 2:16-cv-00813-RFB-GWF. Petitioner challenges the same state court conviction
17
in this case as he challenges in 2:16-cv-00813-RFB-GWF. To avoid duplicate pleadings and in the
18
interest of judicial economy, the instant case will be dismissed. Petitioner’s habeas claims shall
19
proceed in the earlier-filed case 2:16-cv-00813-RFB-GWF.
