JO GENTRY, et al.,
9
Respondents.
10
11

Good cause appearing, Respondents’ third unopposed Motion for Extension of

12

Time (ECF No. 55) is granted in part and denied in part. Respondents have until

13

November 25, 2019, to file an answer to the surviving claims of the Second Amended

14

Petition (ECF No. 22).

15

Given the age of this case, the Court directs counsel for both parties to prioritize

16

the briefing in this case over later-filed matters. Further extensions of time are not likely

17

to be granted absent compelling circumstances and a strong showing of good

18

cause why the briefing could not be completed within the extended time allowed

19

despite the exercise of due diligence.
