LARRY NORRIS RESPONDENT

ORDER

On September 15, 2005, the Magistrate Judge issued his proposed findings and

recommendations recommending that the petition for writ of habeas corpus be

dismissed without prejudice for failure of petitioner to serve respondent by September

stating that he had served respondent on September 2, 2005, but failed to file the

In light of the following, the Court finds that petitioner can proceed with his

action and rejects the findings and proposed recommendation of the Magistrate

Judge. The case is referred to the Magistrate Judge for further proceedings.

Respondent’s motion for extension of time to file an answer is granted; respondent

shall have until October 24, 2005 to file his response to the petition. 

IT IS SO ORDERED this 27th day of September, 2005.
