Respondents, through legal counsel, Aaron D. Ford, Attorney General of The State of Nevada,
17
and Michael J. Bongard, Senior Deputy Attorney General, and Petitioner, Kevin James Lisle, through his
18
attorneys, David Anthony and Stacy Newman, hereby move this Court for an enlargement of time, up

20
order (ECF No. 372) nominating experts to conduct a competency evaluation of the petitioner.
21
Respondents base this request upon the following statements of counsel.
22
Because of Mr. Anthony’s and Mr. Bongard’s respective schedules, counsel were unable to meet
23
and confer regarding the Court’s September 6, 2019 order until September 22, 2019. Mr. Bongard was
24
out of the office appearing in Court in Pioche, Nevada on September 10, 2019, and out of the office
25
attending training from September 11-13, 2019. Mr. Bongard was also doing pro bono work on Friday,
26
September 20, 2019. Mr. Anthony was out of the office September 6-12, 2019.
27
Counsel for both parties at this point need to reach out to additional experts in order to find
28
potential experts that will meet the Court’s requirements of academic, clinical/forensic experience, and
Page 1 of 3
1
experience in criminal legal matters stated on page 2 of the Court’s September 6, 2019. (ECF No. 372.)
2
Counsel anticipates needing two weeks to obtain and vet the names of potential experts. Counsel also
3
anticipates meeting via telephone on either Friday, October 11, 2019, or Monday, October 14, 2019, to
4
select experts to forward to the Court.
5
Counsel does not anticipate needing any additional enlargement of time to submit the names of
6
experts to the Court. The parties provide notice to the Court that Mr. Bongard has annual leave scheduled
7
for Monday, October 22, 2019 through Wednesday, November 6, 2019. However, if the Court intends to
8
schedule a hearing during this time, Chief Deputy Attorney General Heather Procter could attend the
9
hearing.
10
11
12
Therefore, the parties respectfully request the Court extend the time for the parties to submit the
names of additional experts to the stipulated date of Wednesday, October 16, 2019.
