In this habeas corpus action, the respondents were due to file an answer by
April 15, 2019. See Order entered January 15, 2019 (ECF No. 29).

16

On April 9, 2019, Respondents filed a motion for extension of time (ECF No. 30),

17

requesting a 30-day extension of time, to May 15, 2019, to file their answer.

18

Respondents’ counsel states that the extension of time is necessary because of his

19

obligations in other cases. The petitioner does not oppose the motion for extension of

20

time.

The Court finds that Respondents’ motion for extension of time is made in good

22

faith and not solely for the purpose of delay, and that there is good cause for the extension

23

of time requested.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Respondents’ motion for extension of time

25

(ECF No. 30) is GRANTED. Respondents will have until and including May 15, 2019, to
