Before the Court is Petitioner’s motions for extension of time to file an amended

16

petition (ECF Nos. 13 and 14). Counsel for petitioner indicates that Antonetti was recently

17

transferred from custody in Arizona to Nevada, that counsel has had difficulty

18

communicating with Petitioner recently due to the transfer, and that counsel suspects that

19

Antonetti has not yet been able review the voluminous files from previous counsel that

20

were sent to Arizona. Counsel also notes that there are numerous grounds for relief, that

21

the state-court record is very large, and that Antonetti is serving multiple consecutive

22

sentences of life without the possibility of parole. Good cause appearing, the Court grants

23

the extension.
