ROCK HILL DIVISION
Robert Louis Garrett, Jr.,

C/A. No. 0:18-1418-CMC-PJG

Plaintiff

Williamson; Dr. Bryne,

Order

Defendants.
This matter is before the court on Plaintiff’s motion for extension of time to file objections
to the Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 326). 1 Plaintiff requests a 30 to 45-day extension
in which to file his objections. This request is related to typewriter access and his difficulty
handwriting pleadings.
Plaintiff’s motion for extension is granted in part, and he shall have until March 12, 2021
to file his objections to the Report. Due to the other numerous extensions since filing of the Motion
for Summary Judgment that is the subject of the pending Report, the court declines to grant a larger
extension. Although Plaintiff has explained his hand injury makes writing painful, he has
successfully filed numerous cases and myriad filings in each of his cases, handwriting each filing.
As his facility is on lockdown, it may not be feasible to allow him typewriter access; however, the
court will continue to pursue further information regarding the issues raised in the Motion for

1

Plaintiff has also filed a motion for temporary restraining order (ECF No. 325) regarding the use
of a typewriter despite the facility lockdown. The court has ordered Defendants to respond to that
motion.
