Petitioner,

ORDER

v.

ISIDRO BACA, et al.,

Respondents.

11

This is a habeas corpus matter under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Respondents filed two

12

motions for leave to file exhibit under seal. (ECF Nos. 51, 55.) The exhibits in question

13

are a psychiatric evaluation and a pre-sentence investigation report, both of which contain

14

confidential information. The Court finds that compelling reasons exist to grant the motion

15

and seal these exhibits. See Kamakana v. City and Cnty. of Honolulu, 447 F.3d 1172,

16

1178-79 (9th Cir. 2006).

Petitioner Harold Cordova has filed an unopposed motion for extension of time
(second request). (ECF No. 57.) The Court finds good cause exists to grant the motion.
It is therefore ordered that Respondents’ motions for leave to file exhibits under
seal (ECF Nos. 51, 55) are granted.

21

It is further ordered that Petitioner’s unopposed motion for extension of time (ECF

22

No. 57) is granted. Petitioner will have up to and including January 3, 2022, to file a reply

23

to the answer (ECF No. 49).
