Date Filed Document Text
June 29, 2023 Filing 16 CASE TRANSFERRED. To the USDC Southern District of CA per order filed 6/29/2023. The district court was notified via email. [updated docket text to reflect sent to S.D.Cal.] [Entered: 06/30/2023 12:09 PM] [Edited: 06/30/2023 03:56 PM]
June 29, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 15 ORDER FILED. CANBY, S.R. THOMAS, and CHRISTEN, Circuit Judges. The motion to proceed in forma pauperis is denied as unnecessary. The application for authorization to file a second or successive 28 U.S.C. 2254 habeas corpus petition in the district court, as supplemented by Docket Entry Nos. 4, 5, 11, and 12, challenges the applicants 2000 Los Angeles County conviction for failure to register as a sex offender, and references the Board of Parole Hearings 2021 decision denying him parole. Insofar as the application, as supplemented, challenges the applicants 2000 conviction, it is denied. The applicant has not made a prima facie showing under 28 U.S.C. 2244(b)(2) that: (A) the claim relies on a new rule of constitutional law, made retroactive to cases on collateral review by the Supreme Court, that was previously unavailable; or (B)(i) the factual predicate for the claim could not have been discovered previously through the exercise of due diligence; and (ii) the facts underlying the claim, if proven and viewed in light of the evidence as a whole, would be sufficient to establish by clear and convincing evidence that, but for constitutional error, no reasonable factfinder would have found the applicant guilty of the underlying offense. Insofar as the application, as supplemented, challenges the 2021 decision to deny parole, authorization is unnecessary because it appears that the applicant has not filed a prior 2254 habeas petition regarding that decision. Accordingly, we deny the application as unnecessary only insofar as it challenges the Boards 2021 decision to deny parole. We express no opinion as to the merits of the applicants claims or whether the procedural requirements of 28 U.S.C. 2244(d) and 2254 are satisfied. The Clerk will transfer the application and supplements filed at Docket Entry Nos. 1, 4, 5, 11, and 12, to the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, to be processed as a 2254 petition challenging the Boards 2021 decision to deny parole. The petition is deemed filed in the district court on March 2, 2023, the date on which the application was signed. See Butler v. Long, 752 F.3d 1177, 1178 n.1 (9th Cir. 2014) (assuming petitioner turned his petition over to prison authorities on the day it was signed and applying the mailbox rule); Orona v. United States, 826 F.3d 1196, 1198-99 (9th Cir. 2016) (AEDPAs statute of limitations period is tolled during pendency of an application). Insofar as the applicant is challenging reports and recommendations, and orders issued in United States District Court for the Central District of California case number 2:03-cv-01459-TJH-SH, we will not consider those allegations because they are not properly raised in these proceedings. Upon transfer of the application, the Clerk will close this original action. Any pending motions are denied as moot. No further filings will be entertained in this case. DENIED; APPLICATION TRANSFERRED to the district court. --[COURT NOTE: Resending NDA to S.D.Cal. per order.] [Entered: 06/29/2023 04:18 PM] [Edited: 06/30/2023 03:41 PM]
