MICHAEL JOSEPH COLLIER, JR., Petitioner, v. MELISSA ANDREWJESKI, Respondent.
MINUTE ORDER
The following Minute Order is made at the direction of the Court, the Hon. Michelle L. eterson, United States Magistrate Judge:
This matter comes before the Court on Petitioner Michael Joseph Collier, Jr.'s “Motion: pposition to Respondent's Answer Concerning Early Release” (“Petitioner's Opposition”). Dkt. # 31.) On June 7, 2023, Petitioner filed a Motion “for Early Release,” which was noted as ipe for this Court's consideration on June 23, 2023. (See dkt. # 24.) On June 15, 2023, espondent Melissa Andrewjeski filed a response. (Dkt. # 27). On June 29, 2023, this Court ntered an Order denying Petitioner's Motion “for Early Release.” (Dkt. # 30.)
Here, though styled as a motion, Petitioner's Opposition is essentially an untimely reply o his prior Motion “for Early Release.” (See dkt. # 31.) In any case, as previously explained in this Court's prior Order, Petitioner fails to establish any “special circumstances” or a “high probability of success” on the merits of his federal habeas petition to justify his immediate release. (See dkt. # 30 at 2-3.) Accordingly, Petitioner's Opposition (dkt. # 31) is STRICKEN as untimely.
