FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS / Petitioner, a state prisoner without counsel, has filed a petition for a writ of habeas 17 corpus. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On June 29, 2009, the court ordered petitioner to demonstrate 18 either that the petition is not second or successive or submit evidence that the appellate court has 19 authorized this court to consider the petition. The court warned petitioner that failure to comply 20 with the order would result in a recommendation that this action be dismissed upon the ground 21 that petitioner has filed a successive petition without authorization from the appellate court. 22 On August 26, 2009, petitioner responded to the court’s order. In his response, petitioner 23 states that he has requested that the appellate court authorize this court to consider his second or 24 successive petition, but that his request has not yet been granted.

However, in the absence of 26 proper authorization from the appellate court, this court may not consider the second or 1 Dockets.Justia.com 1 successive petition, and must dismiss it for lack of jurisdiction.

Calderon, 274 2 F.3d 1270, 1274 (9th Cir. 2001) (per curiam). 3 Accordingly, it is hereby RECOMMENDED that this action be dismissed on the ground 4 that the petition is second or successive and petitioner has not demonstrated that the United 5 States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit has granted him leave to file it in this court. 6 These findings and recommendations are submitted to the United States District Judge 7 assigned to the case, pursuant to the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l).
