l. I wish the court to rule on my § 2254 L- §
petition as currently pending. I realize Q - ;
that the law does not allow me to file W" A i""""""""°‘ "
successive or later petitions unless I
receive certification to do so from the
United States Court of Appeals for the
Third Circuit; therefore, this petition
will be my one opportunity to seek federal
habeas corpus relief
2. I wish to amend my § 2254 petition to
include all the grounds I have. I will
do so within thirty (30) days. I realize
that the law does not allow me to file
successive or later petitions unless I
receive certification to do so from the
United States Court of Appeals for the
Third Circuit; therefore, this amended
all-inclusive petition will be my one
opportunity to seek federal habeas corpus
relief.

3. I wish to withdraw my § 2254 petition
without prejudice to file one all—inclusive
petition in the future; that is, one
that raises all the grounds I have for
federal habeas corpus relief. I realize
this all-inclusive petition must be filed
within the one-year period as defined by
28 U.S.C. § 2244(d). See Swartz v. Meyers,
204 F.3d 417 (3d Cir. 2000).
4. I am not seeking federal habeas corpus
relief under § 2254. I am instead seeking
relief under .
