February 14, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 9 ORDER: The Court DISMISSES Selmon's 2241 habeas petition without prejudice to his right to exhaust his state remedies. In other words, this order does not prohibit Selmon from attempting to seek federal habeas relief after he has fully exhausted his available state remedies. However, should he choose to do so, the Court expresses no opinion on the potential viability of his claims. The Court DIRECTS the clerk of Court to STRIKE the unauthorized supplemental documents that Selmon filed without seeking permission form the Court. The documents are not related to and have no bearing on the Courts adjudication of this habeas action. (Ordered by Judge Reed C. O'Connor on 2/14/2023) (tjc)
