UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

THOMA L. WILLIAMS,

Petitioner,

v.

D. ADAMS,

Respondent.

 /

CV F 04-5203 DLB HC

ORDER DISCHARGING ORDER TO SHOW

CAUSE AND GRANTING RESPONDENT

EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE RESPONSE

TO AMENDED PETITION

[Docs. 20, 21]

Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a petition for writ of habeas corpus

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c)(1), the parties have consented to

the jurisdiction of the United States Magistrate Judge. 

On July 8, 2005, the undersigned issued an order for Respondent to submit an answer

addressing the claims raised in the amended petition. The answer was on or before August 26,

2005. Respondent failed to file a response. Therefore, on August 31, 2005, the Court issued an

order to show cause why sanctions should not be imposed for failing to comply with a court

order. Respondent filed a response on September 1, 2005. In its response, Respondent indicates

that although she received the court’s July 8, 2005, order via email, at the time of receipt she had

just returned from an extended vacation, and the email was among several other emails and it

was apparently overlooked and not calendared. Respondent requests an extension of thirty days

to file a response.
