ORDER

Petitioner moved on April 8, 2016 for an extension of time to file a response to
Respondent's motion for summary judgment and filed a response in opposition to the
Respondent's motion for summary judgment. (Dkt. No. 35, 36). However, the Petitioner filed a
response in opposition to Respondent's motion for summary judgment on August 5, 2015. (Dkt.
No. 23). The Magistrate Judge issued a Report and Recommendation on January 25,2016
recommending that the Respondent's motion for summary judgment be granted. (Dkt. No. 26).
Petitioner filed objections to the Report and Recommendation on February 16,2016, and this
Court adopted the Report and Recommendation as the order of the Court on March 7, 2016,
dismissed the Petition, and denied a certificate of appealability. (Dkt. No. 32).
Since this action has been dismissed, Petitioner's present motion for enlargement of time
and response in opposition to summary judgment (Dkt. Nos. 35, 36) are untimely and are
DENIED.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
