Plaintiff,

No. 2:12-cv-0915 TLN AC P

v.

ORDER

JIM DENNY, et al.,

15

Defendants.

16
Plaintiff has filed a motion requesting an extension of the time to December 26, 2018, to

17
18

respond to defendants’ motion for summary judgment. ECF No. 180. His deadline to respond is

19

currently December 17, 2018. ECF No. 179. Although plaintiff was previously warned that no

20

further extensions of time would be granted (ECF No. 179), in light of the relatively brief time

21

requested and the reasons cited for the extension, plaintiff will be granted a final, brief extension

22

of time. He is further advised that his documents are not required to be typewritten, as this court

23

routinely accepts handwritten documents from pro se prisoners. Plaintiff is also not required to

24

provide declarations from individuals that merely corroborate facts that he has personal

25

knowledge of, because he can simply testify to those facts himself.

26

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

27

1. Plaintiff’s motion for an extension of time (ECF No. 180) is granted.

28
