Respondents.

14

On August 3, 2018, this court issued a show-cause order and directed petitioner

15

Clint B. Moss to demonstrate that his pro se 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition for writ of habeas

16

corpus was timely filed or that he was entitled to equitable tolling (ECF No. 3). That

17

order was served on Moss at his address of record. The deadline to respond has

18

passed, and Moss has not filed a response or otherwise responded to the court’s order

19

in any way. Accordingly, this petition is dismissed for failure to respond to the show-

20

cause order.

21

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the petition is DISMISSED.

22

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a certificate of appealability is denied.

23

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk shall enter judgment accordingly and

24
25

close this case.
DATED: 19 October 2018.
