of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On July 9, 2007, the Court filed a Report and

Recommendation denying Respondent’s motion to dismiss. On September 14, 2007, District Judge

Roger T. Benitez adopted the Report and Recommendation and directed Respondent to file an

answer on or before October 22, 2007. On October 16, 2007, Respondent filed a motion for a 30
