STANLEY V. RYAN 2
ORDER
Petitioner Milo McCormick Stanley (Stanley) appealed
the district court’s vacatur of an evidentiary hearing ordered
by this court and denial of his petition for a writ of habeas
corpus. On May 10, 2013, Stanley’s counsel informed this
court that Stanley passed away in prison. Due to Stanley’s
death, we dismiss his appeal and “remand this case to the
district court for dismissal of the petition for a writ of habeas
corpus as moot and for further proceedings as may be
required, including the vacatur of any prior orders.” Farmer
v. McDaniel, 692 F.3d 1052 (9th Cir. 2012) (citation
omitted).
DISMISSED AND REMANDED.
