RAYMOND M. GONZALES, Petitioner, v. GERMAN FRANCO and ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR STATE OF NEW MEXICO, Respondents.
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
STEPHAN M. VIDMAR UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
THIS MATTER is before the Court sua sponte in connection with Petitioner's pro se post-judgment responses and motions. [Docs. 12-15]. Petitioner was incarcerated when this case commenced. His post-judgment filings challenge the dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 habeas petition. See [Doc. 10]. The filings were submitted between 2017 and 2019 but were not coded as pending motions in CM/ECF. There has been no case activity since 2019, and it is unclear whether Petitioner is still in custody and/or intends to prosecute his post-judgment submissions. If Petitioner wishes to prosecute his request to reopen this case, he must file a response confirming his custody status and current address within 30 days of entry of this Order. See D.N.M.LR-Civ. 83.6 (pro se litigants have a continuing duty to notify the Clerk of their current address). If Petitioner fails to timely respond and/or has severed contact with the Court, no further action will be taken, and the case will remain closed.
IT IS ORDERED that if Petitioner wishes to prosecute his post-judgment filings, he must file a response no later than December 7, 2022, confirming his custody status and current address.
