IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF MONTANA
BILLINGS DIVISION

JAVIER SOTELO CANTU,

Cause No. CR 20-90-BLG-SPW-TJC

Plaintiff,
vs.

ORDER

EAGLE CLIFF MANOR; SHAWNA
BOATMAN; SYNERTX,
Defendants.

On October 2, 2020, the Court permitted Plaintiff Cantu to explain his
claims in more detail. See Order (Doc. 5). Cantu now seeks an extension of time
to respond. See Mot. (Doc. 7) at 1.
The request is reasonable and will be granted. The Court notes, however,
that Cantu states he needs additional time to “submit all the evidence needed.” Id.
Cantu does not need to submit evidence at this time, and the Court will not review
evidence to find Cantu’s claims for him.
Cantu must explain his claims in writing and in his own words by
responding to the issues and questions the Court raised. See Order (Doc. 5) at 2–5
¶¶ A–D.

complaint with his service copy of this Order.
