ORDER DENYING REQUEST TO STAY
Courtney Vanshion Martin filed a motion pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255 on August 19, 2005. On September 26, 2005 the Clerk received a letter from Martin, dated August 23, 2005, in which he states that he is being transferred to the Federal Correctional Institution in Yazoo City, Mississippi. He requests that all action on his § 2255 motion be stayed until he is able to notify the Court of his new mailing address.
The request to stay this action is DENIED as unnecessary. Martin's motion is currently undergoing the preliminary review required by Rule 4 of the Rules Governing § 2255 Proceedings. No further action will be taken in this case until that review is completed; therefore, Martin should have ample time in which to notify the Court of his new address.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
