you please advise what my next steps are and if there
is public council available for my assistance? When am
I supposed to go to court over this? Would I receive
the assistance of a public defender?
Thank you for reading my letter and trying to help me.
This document failed to comply with the Rules of the Court
as to the form and content of a proper petition. Nevertheless,
on June 27, 2005, the Court filed the document as an imperfect
petition regarding respondent’s notice of determination. By
order dated June 30, 2005, the Court directed petitioner to file
a proper amended petition on or before August 15, 2005. The
order stated that if an amended petition was not received on or
before August 15, 2005, the case would be dismissed. By order
dated September 13, 2005, the Court extended the time for
petitioner to file an amended petition until October 3, 2005.
Petitioner failed to comply with the Court’s orders to file an
amended petition. On December 21, 2005, the Court entered an
Order of Dismissal for Lack of Jurisdiction (order of dismissal).
On April 26, 2006, 126 days after the Court entered its
order of dismissal, petitioner mailed to the Court two documents
entitled “Motion for Leave to File Motion to Vacate Order of
Dismissal for Lack of Jurisdiction” and “Motion to Vacate Order
of Dismissal for Lack of Jurisdiction” (motion to vacate).2
2 Both documents were signed and dated Apr. 26, 2006, and
the envelope in which these documents were sent bears a postmark
of Apr. 26, 2006.
