Respondents.

ORDER

_____________________________/

15
16

In this habeas corpus action, brought by Nevada prisoner Julius Bradford, the respondents filed

17

a motion to dismiss on September 11, 2017 (ECF No. 73). Bradford filed an opposition to the motion

18

to dismiss on November 27, 2017 (ECF No. 76). And, on November 27, 2017, Bradford also filed a

19

motion for an evidentiary hearing (ECF No. 77).

20

After a 30-day extension of time, and then a 13-day extension of time, respondents’ reply in

21

support of their motion to dismiss, and their response to the motion for evidentiary hearing, were due

22

on February 8, 2018. See Order entered January 13, 2017 (ECF No. 66); Order entered December 28,

23

2017 (ECF No. 80); Order entered January 18, 2018 (ECF No. 82). On February 8, 2018, respondents

24

filed a motion for extension of time (ECF No. 83), requesting a seven-day extension of time, to February

25

15, 2018. Respondents’ counsel states that she needs this further extension of time because she has been

26

ill. Bradford does not oppose the motion for extension of time. The Court finds that respondents’

1

motion for extension of time is made in good faith and not solely for the purpose of delay, and that there

2

is good cause for the extension of time.

3

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that respondents’ motion for extension of time

4

(ECF No. 83) is GRANTED. Respondents will have until February 15, 2018, to file their reply in

5

support of their motion to dismiss, and their response to petitioner’s motion for evidentiary hearing.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that, in all other respects, the schedule for further proceedings
set forth in the order entered January 13, 2017 (ECF No. 66) shall remain in effect.
