FREDA L. WOLFSON, District Judge.
Petitioner pro se, Erik Vanderbeck ("Petitioner"), a federal prisoner presently incarcerated at F.C.I. Fort Dix, in Fort Dix, New Jersey, filed a Motion to Vacate, Set Aside, or Correct a Sentence, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255. (See ECF No. 1.) As the Motion lacked a notice under United States v. Miller, 197 F.3d 644 (3d Cir. 1999), the Court provided this notice and directed Petitioner, within 45 days, to submit an amended, all-inclusive § 2255 Motion or to notify the Court that he desired to proceed on his original Motion as filed. (ECF No. 4.) Petitioner has now notified the Court that he wishes to proceed upon his original Motion. (ECF No. 6.) Upon screening the Motion, the Court has determined that dismissal of the Motion without an Answer and the record is not warranted. See Rule 4 of Rules Governing § 2255 Cases.
Accordingly, IT IS, this 11th day of December 2018
ORDERED that Respondent shall file a full and complete Answer to the Motion and supporting memorandum within forty-five (45) days of the entry of this Order; and it is further
ORDERED that Respondent shall raise by way of its Answer any appropriate defenses that it wishes the Court to consider, including, with respect to the asserted defenses, relevant legal arguments with citations to appropriate legal authority; and it is further
ORDERED that the Answer shall be accompanied by certified copies of all notices, opinions, documents, transcripts, or recordings of any proceedings, including all documentation that may be material to the questions raised in the Motion; in lieu of providing certified copies, however, the Government may cite to the criminal docket by referencing the ECF docket entry number and the page; and it is further
ORDERED that Petitioner may file and serve a Reply in support of the Motion within forty-five (45) days after the Answer is filed; and it is further
ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court shall serve a copy of this Order on petitioner by regular U.S. mail.
