Petitioner,

Case No. 3:19-cv-00576-MMD-WGC
ORDER

v.
WARDEN RUSSELL, et al.,

10

Respondents.

13

In this habeas corpus action, the Petitioner, Jermaine Jamaica Campbell, Sr.,

14

represented by appointed counsel, filed an amended habeas petition on September 21,

15

2020. (ECF No. 25.) Respondents were then to file a response to the amended petition

16

by November 20, 2020. (ECF No. 9.)

17

On November 20, 2020, Respondents filed a motion for extension of time (ECF

18

No. 31) requesting a 60-day extension, to January 19, 2021, to file their response to the

19

amended petition. Respondents’ counsel states that the extension of time is necessary

20

because of the time necessary to obtain the state court record and because of delays

21

caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. (Id.) Petitioner does not oppose the motion for

22

extension of time.

23

The Court finds that Respondents’ motion for extension of time is made in good

24

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

25

of time requested.

26

It is therefore ordered that Respondents’ motion for extension of time (ECF No.

27

31) is granted. Respondents will have until and including January 19, 2021, to file a

28

response to the amended habeas petition.
