ORDER
JIM SALMONSEN, Warden,
Montana State Prison,
Respondent.
Representing himself, Conor Larkin McLean has filed a Petition for Writ of Habeas

his sentence, pursuant to § 46-18-201(3)(a)(iv)(A), MCA. McLean has two criminal cases,
Cause Nos. DC-19-209(A) and DC-20-338(A), and the Flathead County District Court
committed him on November 25, 2020, for his offenses. Upon review of his Petition, we
deem it appropriate to require a response. Therefore,
IT IS ORDERED that the Attorney General or counsel for the Department of
Corrections is GRANTED thirty days from the date of this Order in which to prepare, file,
and serve a written response to the petition for writ of habeas corpus together with any
appropriate documentary exhibits.
The Clerk of the Supreme Court is directed to provide a copy of this Order to the
Attorney General; to counsel for the Department of Corrections; and to Petitioner
personally.
