Case No. 14-cv-05048-VC (PR)

ORDER GRANTING PETITIONER’S 

MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO 

SHOW CAUSE WHY PETITION SHOULD 

NOT BE DISMISSED FOR FAILURE TO 

EXHAUST

RE: Dkt. No. 11

Petitioner Lionel Blanks, a state prisoner, filed a pro se petition for a writ of habeas corpus 

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On January 26, 2015, the Court issued an order for Blanks to show 

cause, within twenty-one (21) days from the date of the order, why his petition should not be 

dismissed for failure to exhaust state remedies. 

Blanks now moves for thirty additional days in which to show that some or all of his 

claims have been exhausted. This motion is granted. Blanks is granted thirty days from the date of 

this order to respond to the order to show cause. The Court will not entertain any further motions 

for extensions of time. 

This Order terminates docket number 11.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
