UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

JESUS ANDRES LOPEZ, 

Petitioner, 

v. 

PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF 

CALIFORNIA, 

Respondent. 

No. 2:15-cv-1756-KJM-EFB P 

ORDER 

 Petitioner is a state prisoner without counsel seeking a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 

28 U.S.C. § 2254. On April 18, 2016, respondent was directed to file a response to petitioner’s 

amended petition containing only his exhausted claims. Respondent filed an answer on May 31, 

2016. On August 10, 2016, petitioner submitted a letter requesting clarification on when his 

traverse is due. ECF No. 32. Pursuant to the April 18th order, petitioner’s traverse was due 

“within 30 days of service of an answer.” That time has now run. Petitioner’s letter is construed 

as a request for an extension of time and is granted. 

 Accordingly, petitioner has 30 days from the date this order is served to file his traverse. 

As the filing of the traverse is optional, the matter stands submitted for decision at the expiration 

of the thirty days. 

Dated: August 17, 2016.
