ORDER DIRECTING APPLICANT TO CURE DEFICIENCIES

Applicant has submitted an Application for a Writ of Habeas Corpus Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. The Court has reviewed the § 2254 Application and it appears that he is challenging the execution of his sentence. Mr. Howard alleges that on January 27, 2012, he was sentenced to serve 365 days in prison, to run concurrently with a previous 365-day sentence he received on December 22, 2011, with 180 days suspended. He claims that his sentences have been served and that he should be released immediately.

"Petitions under § 2241 are used to attack the execution of a sentence, see Bradshaw v. Story, 86 F.3d 164, 166 (10th Cir.1996), in contrast to § 2254 habeas and § 2255 proceedings, which are used to collaterally attack the validity of a conviction and sentence." See McIntosh v. United States Parole Comm'n, 115 F.3d 809, 811 (10th Cir. 1997). Accordingly, to the extent Mr. Howard is challenging the execution of his state court sentences, his remedy is an Application for a Writ of Habeas Corpus Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241.

As part of the court's review pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR 8.2, the court has determined that the submitted documents are deficient as described in this order. Applicant will be directed to cure the following if he wishes to pursue his claims. Any papers that the Applicant files in response to this order must include the civil action number on this order.
