MARIO CAMACHO,

Case No. 3:20-cv-00488-RCJ-WGC

Petitioner,

ORDER

v.
WILLIAM GITTERE, et al.,
Respondents.

10

12

In this habeas corpus action, after a 120-day initial period and a 91-day

13

extension of time, the petitioner, Mario Camacho, represented by appointed counsel,

14

was due to file a second amended petition for writ of habeas corpus by August 9, 2021.

15

See Order entered January 8, 2021 (ECF No. 22) (120 days to file second amended

16

petition); Order entered May 4, 2021 (91-day extension).

17

On August 9, 2021, Petitioner filed a motion for extension of time (ECF No. 27),

18

requesting a further 60-day extension of time, to October 8, 2021, to file his second

19

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

20

because of restrictions on visitation at Ely State Prison, resulting from the COVID-19

21

pandemic, which have delayed counsel’s meeting with Petitioner regarding the second

22

amended petition. Respondents do not oppose the motion for extension of time. The

23

Court finds that the motion for extension of time is made in good faith and not solely for

24

the purpose of delay, and that there is good cause for the extension of time.

25

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

26

(ECF No. 27) is GRANTED. Petitioner will have until and including October 8, 2021, to

27

file his second amended petition for writ of habeas corpus.
