ORDER DENYING PETITIONER'S MOTION [24] FOR A FEDERAL INVESTIGATION
Roy Percy, Judge.
This matter comes before the court on the motion [24] by the petitioner for the court to order a federal investigation regarding discrepancies in his state felony indictment, discovery in his criminal case, and other issues regarding his state prosecution. A federal court, as part of the judicial branch, does not have the power to order an investigation into such matters, as investigation into criminal matters is a function of the executive branch through the Department of Justice. As such, the instant motion [24] is DENIED.
SO ORDERED.
