MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS:
On June 23, 2020, this Court opened civil case 2:20-cv-01196-LRH regarding Petitioner/Defendant's Renewal of Motion to Vacate under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (ECF No. 2017); this motion was actually pending before the Court in criminal case 2:03-cr-00350-LRH-PAL-12. Defendant's original motion to vacate (ECF No. 1836) was denied on August 1, 2017 (ECF No. 1909). The Court's ruling was affirmed by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on August 23, 2021 (ECF No. 2049), which confirmed that “Hobbs Act robbery is a crime of violence under § 924(c)(3)(A).”
The Court having reviewed this history has determined that no further action is required and that civil case 2:20-cv-01196-LRH can be administratively closed. All further pleadings shall continue to be filed in criminal case 2:03-cr-00350-LRH-PAL-12.
Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Clerk shall administratively close civil case 2:20-cv-01196-LRH.
IS FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner/Defendant's Renewal of Motion to Vacate under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (ECF No. 2017) is DENIED as MOOT.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
