Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that respondents’ motion for

enlargement of time [ECF No. 74] is GRANTED. Respondents have until July 23, 2020, to

answer to the remaining claims of Petitioner Manuel Melendez’s Second Amended Petition. 1

Given the age of this case, I previously directed counsel for both parties to prioritize the

13

briefing in this case over later-filed matters and warned that a heightened standard would apply to

14

any additional requests for extensions of time. 2 My instruction and warning remain in effect

15

moving forward.
