MICHAEL B. PRYOR,

Petitioner,

M. SPEARMAN,

Respondent.

No. 2:14-cv-1521 DB P

ORDER

Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis with a petition for a 

writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On September 9, 2016 petitioner filed a second 

amended petition and a motion to stay these proceedings and hold them in abeyance pending 

petitioner’s exhaustion of state remedies. (ECF Nos. 60, 61.) On September 30, 2016, 

respondent filed an opposition to petitioner’s motion and a motion to dismiss the second amended 

petition. (ECF No. 63.) On October 7, 2016, petitioner requested an extension of time to file a 

response to respondent’s September 30 filing. (ECF No. 64.) Petitioner states that respondent 

does not oppose the requested extension of time. 

Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED as follows:

1. Petitioner’s October 7 motion for an extension of time (ECF No. 64) is granted. By 

November 29, 2016, petitioner shall file any opposition to respondent’s motion to 

dismiss and any reply to respondent’s opposition to petitioner’s motion to stay.
