Opinion
CASE NO. 2:11-cv-10030
10-31-2011
ALFONZO LEE NEWELL, Petitioner, v. ROBERT NAPEL, Respondent.
HONORABLE
ORDER DENYING PETITIONER'S
REQUEST TO AMEND THE HABEAS PETITION
Petitioner filed a pro se application for the writ of habeas corpus, which the Court denied on August 25, 2011. Pending before the Court is Petitioner's letter to the Clerk of the Court, requesting permission to amend his habeas petition because his claims were not properly drafted. The request to file an amended habeas corpus petition [dkt. #26] is DENIED as moot because this case is closed and the Court's dispositive opinion and judgment are pending on appeal. See Newell v. Curley, No. 11-2248 (6th Cir. Oct. 6, 2011).
