FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS PATRICK EATON, Respondent. 16 Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, brings this petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Pending before the Court is Respondent’s motion to dismiss, ECF No. 13. This action proceeds on the original petition. See ECF No. 1.

The Court agrees. / / / / / / …
