SHELLI ROSE DEWEY,

Petitioner,
v.

ORDER GRANTING MOTION FOR
EXTENSION OF TIME

DWIGHT NEVEN, et al.,
Respondents.

11

In this habeas corpus action, the respondents were due to file an answer by

12

February 21, 2019 (ECF No. 75). On February 21, 2019, Respondents filed a motion for

13

extension of time (ECF No. 76), requesting a five-day extension of time for their answer.

14

Respondents then filed their answer on February 26, 2019, as contemplated in their motion for

15

extension of time (ECF No. 77). Respondents’ counsel states that the extension of time was

16

necessary because of his obligations in other cases. The petitioner does not oppose the motion for

17

extension of time. The Court finds that Respondents’ motion for extension of time was made in

18

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

19

of time requested. The Court will grant the extension of time as requested.
