Civil Action 20 Civ. 1064 (RA) (SLC)
11-29-2022
OMAR TRIPLETT, Petitioner, v. P. REARDON, Respondent.
ORDER
SARAH L. CAVE, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE.
On November 16, 2022, the Court granted Petitioner Omar Triplett's request to file a further supplement (the “Supplement”) to his petition for a writ of habeas corpus, and directed him to file the Supplement by November 30, 2022. (ECF No. 67 (the “November 16 Order”)). The November 16 Order was mailed to Mr. Triplett on November 17, 2022. (See ECF min. entry Nov. 17, 2022).
The Court is now in receipt of Mr. Triplett's letter dated November 17, 2022, in which he again requests leave to file the Supplement. (ECF No. 68 (the “Request”)). In the Request, Mr. Triplett also requests the “fill-out forms” necessary to file the Supplement, and a copy of his letter to the Court at ECF No. 64. (Id.) The Court presumes that Mr. Triplett filed the Request before he received the November 16 Order and, thus, was not aware that the Court already granted his request to file the Supplement. Accordingly, the Request is GRANTED IN PART and DENIED IN PART as follows:
1. In light of the November 16 Order, the Request is DENIED as moot insofar as Mr. Triplett requests leave to file the Supplement. Because Mr. Triplett has indicated that he does not have the forms necessary to file the Supplement, the Court sua sponte extends his deadline to file the Supplement, and directs him to do so by
December 21, 2022. Respondent may file a response, if any, to the Supplement by January 4, 2023.
2. The Request is otherwise GRANTED. The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to mail to Mr. Triplett (i) the forms necessary for him to file the Supplement, and (ii) a copy of his letter at ECF No. 64.
The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to mail a copy of this order to Petitioner at the address below.
SO ORDERED.
