In this habeas corpus action, the Court appointed counsel for the petitioner, Gonzalo Villalobos,

17

on March 31, 2016 (ECF No. 16) and counsel appeared on his behalf on April 14, 2016 (ECF No. 17).

18

With counsel, Villalobos was due to file an amended habeas petition on May 31, 2016. See Order

19

entered March 31, 2016 (ECF No. 16).

20

On May 31, 2016, Villalobos filed a motion for extension of time (ECF No. 18), requesting a

21

120-day extension of time, to September 28, 2016, to file his amended petition. Villalobos’ counsel

22

states that the extension of time is necessary because of difficulties communicating with Villalobos,

23

difficulties obtaining the record in his case, and her obligations in other cases. This would be the first

24

extension of this deadline. Respondents do not oppose the extension of time.
