Boewrell Lenoir Durham v. Superior Court of California County of Los Angeles
Opinion
Trial Court Opinion
I.
INTRODUCTION
On October 11, 2020, Boewrell Lenoir1 (“Petitioner”) filed a Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus (“Petition”). ECF Docket No. (“Dkt.”) 1. It appears, however, the Petition is subject to dismissal because: (1) the Petition fails to name a proper respondent; and (2) the Petition fails to comply with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 8 (“Rule 8”) and Rule 2(c) of the Rules Governing Habeas Corpus Cases Under Section 2254 (“Habeas Rule 2(c)”). The Court will provide Petitioner an opportunity to address these issues before making a final determination regarding whether the Petition should be dismissed.

1 It is not clear from the Petition what Petitioner’s full name is. In the caption, Petitioner is identified as Boewrell Lenoir Durham, but where the Petition asks him to state his full name, he identifies himself as “Boewrell Lenoir Devion 1-30 thousand.” Dkt. 1 at 1. In addition, based on documents attached to the Petition, it appears his name is either Lenoir Boewrell, id. at 14, or Boewrell Lenoir, id. at 16. For purposes of this Order, the Court will refer to him as Petitioner.
