December 14, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 3 Attachment to Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus re #1 Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus by JAMES THOMAS HOPKINS. (Attachments: #1 Envelope) (lyk)
December 6, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 2 ORDER re #1 the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus filed by JAMES THOMAS HOPKINS. Upon review of each claim in the Petition, the Court notes that the Petitioner writes "please see attachment." Petitioner, however, is hereby advised that no attachments were received with his 14-page Petition. Accordingly, no later than January 5, 2022, Petitioner is to submit his attachments, which presumably list his claims and sets forth the supporting facts for each of them. The Court cannot review the Petition until this information is received. If said information is not received by January 5, 2022, or if Petitioner does not request additional time to submit this information, then this case will be dismissed for Petitioner's failure to prosecute. Petitioner should take care to label this information with his case number and with the title "Attachment to Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus" to ensure that it gets filed in the correct case. Signed by Magistrate Judge Lisa Pupo Lenihan on December 6, 2021. Text-only entry; no PDF document will issue. This text-only entry constitutes the Order of the Court or Notice on the matter. (kcb)
