William H. Anhood, Petitioner-appellant, v. United States Parole Commission, Respondent-appellee, 5 F.3d 534 (9th Cir. 1993)

MEMORANDUM^** 

William Anhood, a federal prisoner, appeals pro se the district court's dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition for writ of habeas corpus. The district court dismissed the petition because it was identical to a previous petition, CV-92-1248-KN(K), being adjudicated in the same district. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 2253, and we affirm.

In the petition before this court, CV-92-1767-MRP(K), Anhood seeks a reduction of his sentence. In his previous petition, CV-92-1248-KN(K), Anhood also seeks a reduction in his sentence. Indeed, Anhood seeks the same relief in both petitions. Because we conclude that the adjudication of Anhood's prior petition, CV-92-1248-KN(K), will result in a disposition on the merits of all of Anhood's claims, the district court did not err by dismissing Anhood's petition, CV-92-1767-MRP(K).

AFFIRMED.
