ZACHARY KELSEY,

Petitioner,

ORDER

v.

11
12

Case No. 3:18-cv-00174-MMD-VPC

RENEE BAKER, et al.,

13

Respondents.

14
15

In this habeas corpus action, Respondents filed a motion for extension of time

16

(ECF No. 11) on July 16, 2018, requesting a 45-day extension of time, to August 30,

17

2018, for their response to Zachary Kelsey’s petition for writ of habeas corpus. This would

18

be the first extension of this deadline. Respondents’ counsel states that the extension of

19

time is necessary because of the time it took to obtain the state-court record for the case,

20

and the time necessary to analyze that record. The Court finds that Respondents’ motion

21

for extension of time is made in good faith and not solely for the purpose of delay, and

22

that there is good cause for the extension of time requested.

23

It is therefore ordered that Respondents’ Motion for Enlargement of Time (ECF No.

24

11) is granted. Respondents will have until August 30, 2018, to respond to the habeas

25

corpus petition.
