17
Plaintiff Donald Glass (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma
18
pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On January 25, 2013, Plaintiff filed
19
a motion requesting a court order to allow him to file extensions of time to file replies or objections
20
because he is not receiving oppositions or court orders in a timely manner. (ECF No. 146.) Plaintiff
21
filed a corresponding request for judicial notice of certain court filings pursuant to Fed. R. Evid. 201.
22
Plaintiff does not identify a particular matter for which an extension is sought. Fed. R. Civ.
23
Proc. 6; Local Rule 144. The Court will not permit an open extension of time for Plaintiff to submit
24
his replies, objections or requests for extensions. However, Plaintiff may request a specific,
25
necessary extension from the Court as soon as the need for such an extension becomes apparent.
26
Local Rule 144(d). Accordingly, Plaintiff’s motion requesting a court order to allow him to file
27
extensions of time to file replies or objections is DENIED without prejudice.
