ORDER
ALLISON CLAIRE, Magistrate Judge.
The undersigned held a first case management conference on May 23, 2017. Harry Simon and John Mills appeared for petitioner. Clara Levers appeared for respondent. The parties stipulated that absent tolling, the federal habeas petition is due March 29, 2018. Respondent confirmed that he is in the process of obtaining the record from the state court. Respondent shall lodge the state court record electronically by Bates-stamping the entire record, scanning it, and converting it to an optical character recognition (OCR) format.
At the conclusion of the case management conference, respondent's counsel was excused and the undersigned held an ex parte budgeting conference with counsel for petitioner. The results of that budgeting conference are covered in a separate, sealed order.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED as follows:
1. By March 29, 2018, unless a different date is subsequently ordered by the court, petitioner shall file the petition pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. References to the state court record in the petition shall use the identification system set out in the Notice of Lodging, described below. Each reference shall thus include the docket number for the Notice of Lodging, the attachment number, and the Bates-stamp numbers followed, in parentheses, by the abbreviated name of the volume of the record and any internal pagination. For example, if the Notice of Lodging appears as electronic court filing number 40 and the first attachment is the first 300 pages of the Clerk's Transcript on Appeal, the citation form would be "ECF No. 40-1, AG00001-AG00300 (CT 1-300)).
2. By August 31, 2017, respondent shall file a Notice of Lodging and lodge with the court the state court record as specified below.
a. The lodged record shall meet the following requirements:
(i) It shall contain (a) transcripts of the state trial court proceedings; (b) appellant's and respondent's briefs on direct appeal to the California Supreme Court, and the opinion or orders of that Court; and (c) petitioner's and respondent's briefs in any state court habeas corpus proceedings, and all opinions, orders and transcripts of such proceedings.
(ii) The entire record shall be Bates-stamped. Bates-stamp numbering shall be in the format AG00001, AG00002, etc. to distinguish it from other numbering systems in the record.
(iii) The entire record shall be scanned.
(iv) The entire record shall be converted to an OCR format.
(v) State sealed documents shall be lodged in paper form.
b. The Notice of Lodging shall be filed on the court's electronic filing system. Each item of the state court record shall be lodged as an attachment to the Notice of Lodging. For each separate attachment, the Notice of Lodging shall identify the attachment number, the Bates-stamp numbers, and the name of that part of the record, including its internal pagination, if any. For example, the attachment identified above in paragraph 1 would be listed in the Notice of Lodging as: "Attachment #1, AG00001-AG00300 (Clerk's Transcript 1-300)." The identical identifying information shall also be included as the docket title of each electronically lodged attachment to the Notice of Lodging. To the extent possible, each separate paper volume of the state court record shall be lodged as one attachment.
c. The state court record need not also be lodged on CDs, and courtesy copies on CD are not required.
3. Petitioner does not currently intend to file a motion for equitable tolling.
4. The answer shall be filed no later than twelve (12) months after the filing date of the petition.
5. The petition and answer need not include points and authorities regarding application of 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d). A briefing schedule will be set after the petition and answer have been filed.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
