Case Number: 2:16-CV-13298

Petitioner,

HON. VICTORIA A. ROBERTS
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

v.
SHIRLEE HARRY,
Respondent.
/

ORDER GRANTING PETITIONER’S REQUEST
FOR EXTENSION OF TIME (ECF. No. 9)
Petitioner filed a habeas corpus petition. He submitted an original and two
incomplete copies of the petition. The Court issued an Order to Correct Deficiency
requiring Petitioner to submit two complete copies of his petition within 21 days as
required by Rule 3(a), Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases. (ECF No. 5). On October
14, 2016, Petitioner filed a request for extension of time to comply with the Court’s order.
(ECF No. 9). Petitioner asks for additional time because he only recently received the
Court’s Order to Correct Deficiency and he did not retain a full copy of the petition. The
Court finds Petitioner’s request reasonable.
Accordingly, the Court GRANTS Petitioner’s Request for Extension (ECF No. 9).
Petitioner shall submit two complete copies of his petition within 21 days from the date of
this Order. The Court directs the Clerk of Court to provide Petitioner with a copy of the
petition for habeas corpus relief (ECF No. 1). Failure to correct the deficiency may result

in dismissal of this action without prejudice.
