ORDER GRANTING SECOND
EXTENSION OF TIME TO RESPOND TO
MOTION TO DISMISS
Defendants.
Before the Court is Plaintiff’s second motion for an extension of time to respond to
16
Defendants’ motion to dismiss. ECF No. 46. Plaintiff was sentenced on September 21, 2012
17
and anticipated a transfer from the Pierce County Jail to the Washington Correction Center in
18
Shelton, Washington on or about September 25, 2012. ECF No. 43-1. Defendants’ motion to
19
dismiss (ECF No. 41) was originally noted for October 12, 2012. ECF No. 41. Plaintiff’s first
20
motion (ECF No. 43) was granted and extended Plaintiff’s response time until December 10,
21
2012. ECF No. 45.
22
It appears that due to Plaintiff’s transfers, first to Washington Correction Center and
23
then to Monroe Corrections Center (see ECF No. 50), Plaintiff did not receive the Court’s
24
previous Order (ECF No. 45) and has had limited access to his legal materials and a law library.
25
Plaintiff requests an additional extension to respond to Defendants’ motion to dismiss.
26
Defendants have not filed a response to Plaintiffs’ request.

(2)
Plaintiff’s response to Defendants’ motion to dismiss may be filed on or before

The date requested by Plaintiff is a Sunday and the next day is a federal holiday. Therefore, the extension will be
granted for January 14th, giving Plaintiff more than ample time to file his response.
