PEOPLE v. WATTA (BENJAMIN WAYNE)
Extension of time granted
The application of appellant for relief from default for the failure to timely file appellant's request for extension of time is granted.
Good cause appearing, and based upon counsel Jonathan P. Milberg's representation that the appellant's opening brief is anticipated to be filed by April 21, 2017, counsel's request for an extension of time in which to file that brief is granted to March 6, 2017. After that date, only one further extension totaling about 45 additional days is contemplated.
An application to file an overlength brief must be served and filed no later than 60 days before the anticipated filing date. (See Cal. Rules of Court, rule 8.631(d)(1)(A)(ii) & (B)(ii).)
