Petitioner,

ORDER

v.

WILLIAM GITTERE, et al.,
Respondents.

12

In this capital habeas corpus action, Petitioner Travers A. Greene, represented by

13

appointed counsel, filed a second amended habeas petition on May 6, 2020. (ECF No.

14

119.) After a 60-day extension of time, Respondents were due to respond to the second

15

amended petition by September 4, 2020. (See ECF Nos. 113, 122.)

16

On August 27, 2020, Respondents filed a motion for extension of time (ECF No.

17

123), requesting a further 31-day extension of time, which would make their response due

18

on October 5, 2020. Respondents’ counsel states that the extension of time is necessary

19

because of his obligations in other cases. Petitioner does not oppose the motion for

20

extension of time.

21

The Court finds that Respondents’ motion for extension of time is made in good

22

faith and not solely for the purpose of delay, and that there is good cause for the extension

23

of time requested.

24

It is therefore ordered that Respondents’ motion for extension of time (ECF No.

25

123) is granted. Respondents will have until and including October 5, 2020, to file an

26

answer or other response to Petitioner’s second amended habeas petition.
