ORDER

WARDLAW, Circuit Judge.

Petitioner has filed a Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus and Motion for Stay of Execution. Because the three judge panel consisting of Judges Thomas, Gould, and Bybee has jurisdiction over Appeal No. 08-99003 and petitioner's execution is not "imminent," the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus and Motion for Stay of Execution is referred to the Clerk for determination by the three judge panel. See Cir. R. 22-2(c) ("Once a case is assigned to a death penalty panel, the panel will handle all matters pertaining to the case...."); Cir. R. 22-4(e) ("In all capital cases where petitioner seeks a stay of execution, the Clerk shall refer any motion for a stay of execution to the death penalty panel.").

IT IS SO ORDERED.
