UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LINNA YE,

Petitioner,

v.

DIRECTOR OF CORRECTIONS AND 

REHABILITATION,

Respondent.

No. 2:13-cv-0972 MCE CKD P

ORDER

Petitioner has requested a sixty-day extension of time to file objections to the June 11, 

2015 findings and recommendations. Good cause appearing, this request will be granted.

Petitioner also renews her request for appointment of counsel. (See ECF No. 5.) There 

currently exists no absolute right to appointment of counsel in habeas proceedings. See Nevius v. 

Sumner, 105 F.3d 453, 460 (9th Cir. 1996). However, 18 U.S.C. § 3006A authorizes the 

appointment of counsel at any stage of the case “if the interests of justice so require.” See Rule 

8(c), Fed. R. Governing § 2254 Cases. In the present case, the court does not find that the 

interests of justice would be served by the appointment of counsel.
