ORDER REFERRING CASE TO FEDERAL DEFENDER AND SETTING REVISED BRIEFING SCHEDULE

(ECF NOS. 33, 34)

LAWRENCE J. O'NEILL, Chief District Judge.

On July 29, 2019, Javier Haro ("Petitioner"), a federal prisoner proceeding pro se, filed a motion to vacate, set aside, or correct a sentence ("motion") under 28 U.S.C. § 2255, challenging the constitutionality of his guilty plea in light of the Supreme Court's decision in Rehaif v. United States, 139 S.Ct. 2191. See ECF No. 33. On September 20, 2019, the Court issued an order setting a briefing schedule. ECF No. 34. However, on October 4, 2019, to promote efficient processing of petitions under Rehaif and certain other cases, the Court issued Eastern District of California General Order 603, appointing the Federal Defender's Office ("FDO") to represent any defendant who was previously determined to have been entitled to appointment of counsel, or who is now indigent, to determine whether that defendant may qualify for federal relief under either 28 U.S.C. § 2255 or 28 U.S.C. § 2241 in light of Rehaif and the certain other cases. Therefore, the Court appoints FDO to represent Petitioner in this matter pursuant to the provisions of the Criminal Justice Act, Title 18 U.S.C. § 3006A(a)(1) and (c). Accordingly,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the briefing schedule set by the Court's previous order, ECF No. 34, is rescinded; and

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that FDO shall have until December 23, 2019, to file a supplement to Petitioner's pro se § 2255 Motion or notify the Court that it does not intend to file such a supplement. The Government shall file its response to Petitioner's motion no later than February 21, 2020. Petitioner's reply to the Government's response shall be filed no later than April 21, 2020.

The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to add the FDO's Panel Administrator, Connie Garcia (Connie_Garcia@fd.org), to the service list prior to docketing of this Order.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
