NO. Civ. S-04-1173 GEB GGH P

UNOPPOSED REQUEST TO EXTEND

DEADLINE FOR FILING OBJECTIONS TO

MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S FINDINGS AND

RECOMMENDATIONS AND TO STRIKE

FILING [DOCKET NO. 60]; ORDER

Judge: Hon. Gregory G. Hollows

Pursuant to Local Rule 6-142, Petitioner, ROBERT RAMESES, by and

through his counsel, Assistant Federal Defender David M. Porter, 

hereby requests an extension of 30 days in which to file objections to

the findings and recommendations, which are currently due on January

22, 2008. Counsel also requests the Court strike a document, Docket

No. 60, which Mr. Rameses sent directly to the Court. 

This extension is the second extension requested, one earlier

extension of thirty days having been granted. This extension, like the

last, is being sought to enable the undersigned to communicate with Mr.

Rameses and because of the undersigned’s duties in other cases, which

include assisting defendants sentenced under the crack cocaine

guidelines in filing motions to reduce their sentences under 18 U.S.C.

§ 3582(c)(2). The undersigned had hoped that the initial extension

would be sufficient, but because of the intervening holidays and the

urgent need to work on crack cocaine cases where the movant is entitled

to immediate release from prison, the time sought in the initial

extension was insufficient.

This extension is not interposed to unduly delay the proceedings,

to gain unfair advantage, or for any other improper purpose. The

undersigned has contacted respondent's counsel, Deputy Attorney General

Justain Paul Riley, who graciously indicated that he has no opposition

to the requests set forth herein.

On January 4, 2008, the docket reflects an entry, Docket No. 60,

entitled “NOTICE of Points and Authorities to Support Reconsideration

by Robert Rameses.” In fact, the document is a copy of a letter from

Mr. Rameses to the undersigned, and it therefore should not have been 

entered on the docket. Accordingly, the undersigned requests this

Court enter the order lodged with this request, which both extends the

time for filing objections to the findings and recommendations and

strikes Docket No. 60 from the public docket.

Dated: January 22, 2008

Respectfully submitted,

DANIEL J. BRODERICK

Pursuant to the request of petitioner, and good cause appearing

therefor, it is hereby ORDERED that the objections to the findings and

recommendations may be filed on or before February 21, 2008. Any reply

to the objections shall be served and filed within ten days after

service of the objections. No further extensions will be granted.

Because Mr. Rameses is represented by counsel, he is not permitted

to file documents pro se. Accordingly, Docket No. 60 is hereby ordered

STRICKEN.
