Case No. 3:10-cv-00021-GMN-CSD
ORDER GRANTING
MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
(ECF NO. 196)

12

In this capital habeas corpus action, the respondents filed their answer on

13

July 24, 2023 (ECF No. 185). On May 24, 2024, Petitioner Robert McConnell,

14

represented by appointed counsel, filed a reply to the answer and a motion for

15

evidentiary hearing (ECF Nos. 191, 193). The respondents were due to file a response

16

to the reply and a response to the motion for evidentiary hearing by September 23,

17

2024. See ECF Nos. 91, 195.

18

On September 23, 2024, Respondents filed a motion for extension of time (ECF

19

No. 196), requesting a 45-day extension of time, to November 7, 2024. Respondents’

20

counsel states that the extension of time is necessary because of their obligations in

21

other cases. Respondents’ counsel represents that McConnell does not oppose the

22

motion for extension of time. The Court finds that the motion for extension of time is

23

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

24

for the extension of time requested.
