CORRY ALEXIS HAWKINS, Petitioner v. CALVIN JOHNSON, et al., Respondents
ORDER [ECF NO. 67]
CRISTINA D. SILVA UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
Respondents seek an extension of time to file their reply in support of their motion to dismiss. I find that the request is made in good faith and not solely for the purpose of delay, and therefore, good cause exists to grant respondents' motion. Given the age of this case, however, counsel for both parties are directed to prioritize the deadlines in this case over later-filed matters. Further extensions of time are not likely to be granted absent compelling circumstances and a strong showing of good cause why the briefing could not be completed within the extended time allowed despite the exercise of due diligence.
It is therefore ordered that respondents' unopposed first motion for enlargement of time [ECF No. 67] is granted. Respondents have until February 27, 2023, to file their reply.
