Case No. 3:24-cv-00032-ART-CSD
ORDER

Petitioner,
v.
NETHANJAH BREITENBACH, et al.,
Respondents.

11
12

In this habeas corpus action, the petitioner, Elmer Vanentin Sanchez-

13

Rodriguez, represented by appointed counsel, filed an amended habeas petition

14

on August 2, 2024. (ECF No. 15.) After an initial period of 60 days (see ECF No.

15

7), and a 50-day extension of time (ECF No. 21), Respondents’ response to the

16

amended petition was due on November 25, 2024. On November 22, 2024,

17

Respondents filed a motion for extension of time (ECF No. 22) requesting a further

18

60-day extension of time, to January 24, 2025. Respondents’ counsel states that

19

the extension of time is necessary because of their obligations in other cases and

20

because of their medical/health issues. Respondents’ counsel represents that

21

Sanchez-Rodriguez does not oppose the motion for extension of time. The Court

22

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

23

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

24

The Court will grant the extension of time as requested.

25

It is therefore ordered that Respondents’ Motion for Enlargement of Time

26

(ECF No. 22) is granted. Respondents will have until and including January 24,

27

2025, to file an answer or other response to the amended petition for writ of

28

habeas corpus. In all other respects, the schedule for further proceedings set

1

1

forth in the order entered February 26, 2024 (ECF No. 7) will remain in effect.
