JAMES ANTHONY DAVIS,

Petitioner,

11

vs.

DWIGHT W. NEVEN, et al.,

13

Case No. 2:15-cv-01574-RFB-NJK

Respondents.

ORDER

14
15
16

Respondents have filed a motion for extension of time (first request) (ECF No. 42). The
court grants this motion.

17

Petitioner has filed a proper-person motion to extend prison copywork limit (ECF No. 41).

18

The court denies this motion for two reasons. First, petitioner may not file proper-person motions

19

because counsel represents petitioner. Second, petitioner’s request is moot because counsel

20

represents petitioner, and counsel will handle any needed photocopying.

21

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

22

request) (ECF No. 42) is GRANTED. Respondents will have through February 16, 2018, to file

23

and serve an answer or other response to the first amended petition (ECF No. 29).
