December 10, 2021 Mailed a copy of #8 Order to Nigel Fredricks, NYSID: 01469075Z, B&C No. 1411904251 at G.R.V.C., 09-09 Hazen Street, East Elmnhurst, NY 11370. (kh)
December 8, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 8 ORDER: The Court denies Petitioner's request to treat the original petition, rather than the amended petition, as the operative pleading in this action. (ECF 7.) If Petitioner wishes to proceed with a petition under 28 U.S.C. 2241, he must file a second amended petition for a writ of habeas corpus under Section 2241 that: (1) identifies the grounds on which he seeks relief; and (2) pleads facts showing that he has fully exhausted his claims by presenting the grounds for relief to the state courts. The second amended petition for a writ of habeas corpus under Section 2241 must be submitted to the Court's Pro Se Intake unit within thirty days and bear the docket number 21-CV-3690 (LTS). For Petitioner's convenience, a second amended petition form is attached to this order. If Petitioner fails to respond and does not file an amended Section 2241 petition, the Court will dismiss this Section 2254 petition without prejudice because it does not seek relief from a state court judgment. Because the petition at this time makes no substantial showing of a denial of a constitutional right, a certificate of appealability will not issue. See 28 U.S.C. 2253. The Court certifies under 28 U.S.C. 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from this order would not be taken in good faith, and therefore IFP status is denied for the purpose of an appeal. Cf. Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962) (holding that an appellant demonstrates good faith when he seeks review of a nonfrivolous issue). The Clerk of Court is directed mail a copy of this order to the Petitioner and note service on the docket. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Laura Taylor Swain on 12/8/21) (rdz) Transmission to Docket Assistant Clerk for processing.
December 6, 2021 Filing 7 LETTER from N. Fredericks, dated 12/1/21 re: I ask for the Court to proceed with this case as the original, not amended; because if you do this, I will not have leave to renew my Complaint etc. Document filed by Nigel Fredricks.(sc)
December 6, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 6 ORDER TO AMEND: If Petitioner wishes to proceed with a petition under 28 U.S.C. 2241, he must file a second amended Section 2241 petition that: (1) identifies the grounds on which he seeks relief; and (2) pleads facts showing that he has fully exhausted his claims by presenting the grounds for relief to the state courts. The second amended petition for a writ of habeas corpus under Section 2241 must be submitted to the Court's Pro Se Intake unit within thirty days and bear the docket number 21-CV-3690 (LTS). For Petitioner's convenience, a second amended petition form is attached to this order.
