PER CURIAM

1
Larry Bowling appeals from the district court's order denying his request for habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 (1988).  The district court found that Bowling's petition contained both exhausted and unexhausted claims.  The court dismissed the unexhausted claims without prejudice and denied the exhausted claims on the merits.  When, however, a habeas petition contains both exhausted and unexhausted claims, the district court must dismiss the entire petition without prejudice.   Rose v. Lundy, 455 U.S. 509, 522 (1982).  The petitioner may then either resubmit a petition containing only the exhausted claims, or exhaust all claims in state court and then file a new petition.   Id. at 520.


2
Accordingly, the district court's order is vacated and the case is remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.  We grant a certificate of probable cause to appeal.  We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
