ORDER DISREGARDING THIRD MOTION

ORDER DISREGARDING MOTION
CORRECTING ACCESS TO LEGAL
WORK (Doc. 15)
Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding pro se in a habeas corpus action pursuant to 28
19
U.S.C. ' 2254. On June 26, 2013, the Court issued an Order to Show Cause why the petition
20
should not be dismissed as untimely, and provided Petitioner with thirty days within which to file
21
a response. (Doc. 4). Petitioner has repeatedly requested and been granted, extensions of time.
22
On October 24, 2013, Petitioner filed his third request for additional time; however, for reasons
23
unclear at this juncture, the motion was never ruled upon. (Doc. 14). On November 18, 2013,
24
Petitioner filed a motion “correcting access to legal work,” (Doc. 15), wherein Petitioner further
25
explains the difficulties he has been experiencing vis-à-vis obtaining his personal legal files.

On December 10, 2013, Petitioner filed a fourth motion to extend time to file his response
to the Order to Show Cause. (Doc. 17). That same date, Petitioner also filed his response to the
Order to Show Cause. (Doc. 16). Because Petitioner has finally filed his response, the Court will
1
1
disregard both the third request for an extension of time and Petitioner’s motion correcting access
2
to legal work as being moot, and grant the fourth request for additional time up to and including
3
December 10, 2013.
