Order Granting Motion for Extension
of Time
[ECF No. 10]

Respondents

10

Section 2254 petitioner Brandon Kale Harris, who is represented by counsel, requests a 60-

11

day extension of time to file an amended habeas petition. Harris’s counsel states that the extension is

12

necessary because of his obligations in other cases and to allow him to meet with Harris a second

13

time. Respondents do not oppose the request. I find that Harris’s motion for extension of time is

14

made in good faith and not solely for purposes of delay. Accordingly, good cause appearing,

15

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Harris’s motion for extension of time [ECF No. 10] is

16

GRANTED. Harris’s amended petition must be filed by February 24, 2017. The July 13, 2016,

17

scheduling order [ECF No.7] remains in effect in all other respects.
