ALEXIOS ALEXANDER, Petitioner, v. DAVID LONG, Warden, Respondent. No. 2:13-cv-1700 DAD P United States District Court, E.D. California. September 3, 2013

          ORDER

          DALE A. DROZD, Magistrate Judge.

         Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 together with a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. Therein, petitioner challenges the calculation of credits awarded to him on a sentence imposed following his 2010 conviction on charges of conspiracy to commit robbery and four counts of dissuading a witness. Review of court records shows that petitioner has another petition for writ of habeas corpus challenging the same judgment of conviction already pending in this district, Case No. 2:12-cv-0651 WBS CKD P.

         Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

         1. The Clerk of the Court shall transfer the petition filed in this action (ECF No. 1) to Case No. 2:12-cv-0651 WBS CKD P and shall docket it therein as a motion to amend the petition in that case. Henceforth all documents pertaining to petitioner's challenge to the trial court's calculation of his sentence shall be filed in Case No. 12-cv-0651 WBS CKD P; and

         2. The Clerk of the Court is directed to close this action.
