June 21, 2021 Filing 2 Document worded, "MOTION for: "Rehalf Act" docketed as MOTION to Vacate, Set Aside or Correct Sentence (pursuant to Court Order) by Petitioner Kokayi Simmons. (DLB)
June 21, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 1 MEMORANDUM AND ORDER - This matter is before the Court on its own motion. Defendant has filed a motion for relief from judgment pursuant to Rehaif v. United States, 139 S.Ct. 2191 (2019). The Court finds that the motion should be administratively terminated and opened as a new case under 28 U.S.C. 2255. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Clerk is directed to administratively terminate defendants motion for relief from judgment [ECF No.63] and to open it as a new civil action under 28 U.S.C. 2255. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that upon opening the civil action under 28 U.S.C. 2255, the Court will require defendant to file an amended motion to vacate upon a court-provided form. Because this will be defendants first-filed motion to vacate, brought pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 2255, the Court will provide defendant the opportunity at that time to withdraw his motion to vacate or include within his amended motion to vacate all of the 2255 claims he believes he has. See Morales v. United States, 304 F.3d 764, 767 (8th Cir. 2002). Signed by District Judge Audrey G. Fleissig on 6/21/2021. (DLB)
