Accordingly, Mr. Mason shall have through September 29, 2022, to pay this sum to the clerk of the district court. Mr. Mason shall have through September 29, 2022, to show cause why this habeas petition should not be dismissed without prejudice for failure to exhaust his state-court remedies. Because it appears that Mr. Mason has failed to exhaust his state-court remedies and the Court has directed him to show cause, his request for a writ of habeas corpus ad testificandum,i.e., for a hearing or trial, dkt. #3 , is denied. There is no need for a hearing on Mr. Mason's 2254 petition, or for him to be brought to this Court to testify or for trial. Copy to petitioner via US Mail. Signed by Judge James R.
