In this habeas corpus action, the respondents filed an answer on March 12, 2021

13

(ECF No. 17). The petitioner, Demetrius Lamar Brock, represented by counsel, was

14

then due to file a reply by April 26, 2021. See Order entered April 16, 2020 (ECF No. 3)

15

(45 days for reply).

16

On April 26, 2021, Petitioner filed a motion for extension of time (ECF No. 25),

17

requesting an extension of time, of 30 days, to May 26, 2021, to file his reply.

18

Petitioner’s counsel states that the extension of time is necessary because of the

19

lengthy record and lengthy answer. Respondents do not oppose the motion for

20

extension of time.

21

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

22

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

23

extension of time.

24

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Petitioner’s Motion for Extension of

25

Time (ECF No. 25) is GRANTED. Petitioner will have until and including May 26, 2021,

26

to file his reply to Respondents’ answer.
