DISTRICT OF NEW JERSEY

RAVIDATH RAGBIR,
Petitioner,

Civ. No. 12-7380 (KM)
MEIVIORANDUM AND ORDER

V.

uNITE!) STATES OF AMERICA,
Respondent.

Petitioner, who is represented by counsel, has tiled a petition for a writ of error coram
nobis. Because the parties sought a stay of the case to permit discussion of an agreed resolution
of the case, on May 30, 2013, the Court issued an order administratively terminating this case.
(See Dkt. No. 1 2.) The order informed the petitioner he could restore his petition to the Court’s
active calendar by sending a letter request. (See id.)
On February 1 2, 2015, the Court received a letter from petitioner through his counsel
stating that he wished to restore this case to the active docket. Petitioner informed the Court in
this letter that the parties had been unable to agree upon an appropriate resolution of the issues
raised in the petition. The Clerk will therefore be ordered to reopen this case.
Petitioner has also filed an amended version of his coram nobis petition. Upon screening
the petition, the Court finds that dismissal without ordering an answer is not appropriate.
Petitioner slates that he wishes to work with the Office of the United States Attorney to present
to the Court a proposed briefing schedule. I will grant the parties a brief period in which to file a
proposed schedule for the Court’s consideration.
Accordingly, IT IS this

th
18

day of February. 2015.

ORDEREI) that the Clerk shall reopen this case; and it is further

ORDERED that the parties shall submit to the Court a joint status report within ten (10)
days of the date of this Order that shall include an agreed proposed schedule which includes a
date for respondent to file an answer to the amended petition and a date for respondent to file a
reply; and it is further
ORDERED that if the parties are unable to agreed on a proposed schedule, they shall so
state in their joint status report, and the Court will issue its own schedule.
