AMENDED ORDER RE MOTION TO APPOINT COUNSEL

The Court had previously filed an order re: Government's Response to Petition and Motion to Appoint Counsel in which Petitioner's request to have appointed counsel assist him in obtaining "transcripts, filings and motions" concerning the state court cases which form the background for the petition pending before this Court. (Dkt. No. 13.) In granting the motion, the Court ordered the matter referred to the Pro Bono Panel for identification of an attorney to assist Petitioner in the manner he requires." (Id. at 2.)

The Court revises that order as follows:

The Court GRANTS Petitioner's limited request for appointment of counsel and refers this matter to the Federal Public Defender for identification of an attorney who can assist Petitioner in the manner he requires. Once counsel makes an appearance for Petitioner in that limited capacity, the Court will issue a briefing schedule for both sides on the pending petition. The remainder of this matter will be STAYED until that time.

The clerk is ordered to provide copies of this order to Petitioner, the Federal Public Defender's Office, and to all other counsel.
