DAVID THOMAS WARREN,

10

Petitioner,

11

vs.

12

Case No. 3:14-cv-00479-RCJ-VPC

CATHERINE CORTEZ MASTO,

13

ORDER

Respondent.

14
15

Petitioner has submitted a request for clarification and extension of time (#9). Petitioner

16

expresses confusion with naming the warden of the prison as a respondent, because the sentence he

17

is challenging has expired. Regardless of the status of that sentence, petitioner is in prison, and the

18

correct respondent is the warden of that prison. The court will give petitioner additional time to

19

submit an amended petition that corrects the defect.

20

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the request for clarification and extension of time (#9)

21

is GRANTED in part. Petitioner shall have through January 16, 2014, to file an amended petition

22

in accordance with the court’s earlier order (#5).
Dated: This 30th day of December, 2014.
