ORDER

Pending before the Court is the government's motion for summary judgment (Doc. 20). On November 9, 2016, the Court heard oral argument on the motion and took the matter under advisement. After reviewing the pleadings and oral argument, the Court finds that it cannot rule on the record alone. Thus, the Court finds that an evidentiary hearing is necessary to decide the merits of Tzen's 28 U.S.C. § 2255 petition. Accordingly, the Court DENIES the motion for summary judgment. The Court DIRECTS the parties to contact Alex Francis, Courtroom Deputy, with available dates for the hearing.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
