UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MICHAEL COREY SLAUGHTER,

Petitioner,

v.

RON DAVIS, Warden of San Quentin 

State Prison,

Respondent.

Case No. 1:05-cv-00922-DAD-SAB

DEATH PENALTY CASE

ORDER GRANTING PETITIONER’S 

UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR FIRST 

EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE 

MEMORANDUM ADDRESSING MERITS

(Doc. No. 112)

ORDER MODIFYING SCHEDULING 

ORDER

(Doc. No. 109)

Before the court is a motion by petitioner, through counsel, Assistant Federal Defenders

Jennifer Mann and Kelly Culshaw, to extend by one hundred and twenty days the current October 

3, 2016 deadline for filing his memorandum of points and authorities on the merits of each claim 

in the second amended petition. This extension of time, petitioner’s first, is necessary due to

Assistant Federal Defender Mann’s unanticipated administrative duties and responsibilities in 

other matters and Assistant Federal Defenders Culshaw’s recent assignment to this case and 

responsibilities in other matters. (See Doc. Nos. 112-1 & 112-2.) Counsel estimate they have 

completed half of the work needed on the memorandum. (Id.) 

Assistant Federal Defender Mann represents that counsel for respondent, Deputy Attorney 

General Ryan McCarroll, does not object to the requested extension. (See Doc. No. 112-1.)
