In this capital habeas corpus action, on December 21, 2023, petitioner Travers A. Greene

11 filed motions for leave to conduct discovery and for an evidentiary hearing. ECF Nos. 200, 202. On
12 January 16, 2024, the respondents moved for an extension of time to respond to these motions and
13 to file their surreply to Greene’s second-amended petition. ECF No. 203. I granted the requests,
14 giving the respondents until March 7, 2024, to file their responses and surreply. ECF No. 204. The
15 respondents now request another extension, requesting a 46-day extension, explaining that the
16 extension of time is necessary because of obligations in other cases. The respondents’ counsel
17 states that Greene’s counsel does not oppose the motion for extension of time. I find that the
18 respondents’ motion for extension of time is made in good faith and not solely for the purpose of
19 delay and that there is good cause for the extension of time.

22 their response to the motion to conduct discovery, their response to the motion for an evidentiary
23 hearing, and their surreply to Greene’s second-amended petition.
