Respondents
This action is a petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §

14 2254 by John Flowers. After an evidentiary hearing, on May 16, 2012, the court
15 dismissed his petition with prejudice as untimely, and judgment was entered. (ECF Nos.
16 50, 51.) The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the dismissal, and the United States
17 Supreme Court denied his petition for a writ of certiorari (ECF Nos. 52, 70, 75, 76.) Now
18 before the court is petitioner’s pro se motion that he styled as a motion to provide
19 petitioner with address to court appointed attorney. (ECF No. 79.) The Local Rules
20 provide that a party who has appeared through counsel cannot while so represented
21 appear or act in the case. L.R. IA 11-6(a). On July 26, 2010, the Federal Public
22 Defender (“FPD”) filed a notice of representation. (ECF No. 14.) Neither petitioner nor
23 his counsel has filed a motion to terminate representation or to withdraw as counsel.
