HAROLD STAFFORD, Movant, v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Respondent.
Judge Trauger
ORDER
The movant, proceeding pro se, has filed a motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 to vacate, set aside, or correct his sentence, asserting claims based on the insufficiency of the evidence and the ineffective assistance of counsel. (Doc. No. 1.) The Court has examined the motion, as required by Rule 4(b) of the Rules Governing § 2255 Proceedings, and determined that it is not readily apparent on the face of the motion that the movant is not now entitled to relief.
Accordingly, the Clerk is DIRECTED to serve a copy of the motion and supporting memorandum and this order on the United States Attorney. The United States Attorney for this judicial district MUST file an answer, plead, or otherwise respond to the motion in conformity with Rule 5 of the Rules Governing Section 2255 Proceedings within 30 days of the date of entry of this Order.
It is so ORDERED.
