RONALD OLIVER, et al.,
Respondents.

In this habeas corpus action, the respondents filed their answer to the

11

second amended habeas petition on June 21, 2024. (ECF No. 47.) The petitioner,

12

Pierre Devlin, represented by appointed counsel, was then to file a reply by

13

August 20, 2024. (See ECF No. 13 (60 days for reply to answer).)

14

On August 19, 2024, Devlin filed a motion for extension of time (ECF No.

15

48), requesting a 62-day extension, to October 21, 2024. Devlin’s counsel states

16

that the extension of time is necessary because of their obligations in other cases.

17

Devlin’s counsel represents that Respondents do not oppose the motion for

18

extension of time.

19

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

20

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

21

extension of time requested.

4

proceedings set forth in the order entered October 20, 2021 (ECF No. 13) will
