The Federal Public Defender moved the Court for a motion to stay Max Reed, II’s 28

13 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas corpus petition proceedings because the investigation into his case was
14 hampered by restrictions and safety protocols in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including
15 strict limitations on visitation in Nevada prisons. ECF No. 78. The Court granted the motion in
16 June 2020. ECF No. 80. The Court directed that Reed file a motion to reopen this case upon
17 completion of the investigation, which Reed has not yet done. The court now orders Reed to file
18 a report explaining the status of the investigation.
