"Given the length and lack of clarity of the issues raised by Joseph in his § 2255 motion, the court will not enter judgment until at least April 1, 2014. If Joseph feels that the court has neglected to rule on any issue raised in his § 2255 motion, ECF Nos. 1466, 1475, and 1509, he must so inform the court by completing the form attached as Exhibit A to this order and placing it in the prison mail system no later than March 24, 2014. The completed court form must identify what issue was not ruled on in 20 words or less per issue, and must identify the exact page and line of his petition on which the issue was raised. Joseph may not include any argument in the court form. If the court does not timely receive a completed Exhibit A from Joseph, the court will automatically enter judgment in favor of the Government. If Joseph seeks reconsideration of or modification to this order or any judgment pursuant to Rule 59(e) or Rule 60(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, he may file a single document that is no longer than either 30 pages or 9,000 words. See Local Rule 7.5. Such a motion has no bearing on the deadline of March 24, 2014, for identifying issues raised in the § 2255 petition that this court has inadvertently failed to address. The Clerk of Court is directed to delay entry of judgment and to include with Joseph's copy of this order two extra copies of Exhibit A for his use."

ORDER DENYING VARIOUS MOTIONS FILED AFTER THE COURT DENIED DEFENDANT RODNEY JOSEPH'S MOTION UNDER 28 U.S.C. § 2255 re 1546, 1550, 1551 as to Rodney Joseph (2) - Signed by CHIEF JUDGE SUSAN OKI MOLLWAY on 9/9/2014. "Defendant Rodney Joseph, Jr., was asked to identify any issue that this court missed in denying his petition under 28 U.S.C. § 2255. On May 1, 2014, Joseph identified 12 issues he says were raised in his § 2255 petition but were not ruled on. See ECF No. 1560. Because none of these issues was actually raised in his motion, instead having been raised in a portion of his reply that the court expressly declined to consider because it far exceeded the length limitation imposed by the court, this court declines to reach the merits of those untimely and procedurally improper issues." "To the extent Joseph seeks reconsideration of the court's order denying his § 2255 petition, see ECF No. 1546, that motion is denied because Joseph fails to demonstrate any reason supporting reconsideration." "To the extent Joseph seeks leave to file an amended § 2255 petition, an order vacating the court's earlier ruling denying his original petition, and leave to proceed with his proposed amended petition, see ECF Nos. 1550 and 1551, those motions are denied." "As noted above, the court again declines to issue a certificate of appealability."

GPO Oct 12 2023
ORDER DENYING DEFENDANT'S SECOND MOTION FOR COMPASSIONATE RELEASE as to Rodney Joseph (2) re 1756. Signed by JUDGE SUSAN OKI MOLLWAY on 10/12/2023.Having considered Joseph's mandatory life sentence along with his history and present circumstances, this court determines that the § 3553(a) factors do not at this time support his early release and that extraordinary and compelling reasons warranting a reduction in his sentence at this time have not been shown. Joseph's request for compassionate release under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A) is therefore denied. The court encourages Joseph to be a model prisoner who helps others in his prison community, continues to better himself while incarcerated, and continues to foster his family relationships. Whether such efforts will support a compassionate release motion in the future remains to be seen.(cib)
