Opinion
Case No. 07-CV-12273.
August 29, 2008
ORDER GRANTING PETITIONER'S MOTION TO AMEND
This matter is before the court on Petitioner's motion to amend his habeas petition. The court shall accept the amended pleading as a supplement or clarification to his original petition as it does not appear that Petitioner has deleted or added claims to his original petition. Further, the court notes that it has accepted Petitioner's voluminous habeas petition for filing, the State has filed an answer to that petition, and Petitioner has filed a reply to that answer. Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED that Petitioner's motion to amend is GRANTED. The court will consider the pleading as a supplement or clarification to his original petition, and the court makes no determination as to the procedural or substantive merits of Petitioner's claims at this time.
