Before the court is a motion by respondent warden Ron Davis, through counsel Deputy

21 Attorney General Craig Meyers, to extend the current June 18, 2019 deadline for filing his
22 opposition brief on the application of 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d) to all claims in the petition to August
23 19, 2019.

This extension of time, respondent’s first, is necessary due to the voluminous

24 pleadings and record, the number and complexity of issues raised, and counsel’s responsibilities
25 in other matters.

Mr. Meyers represents that counsel for petitioner, Assistant Federal Defender Harry

27 Simon, does not oppose the requested extension.
