DA 24-0181

DANNY LEE WARNER, JR., Plaintiff and Appellant, v. ORDER STATE OF MONTANA and the DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, FILED Defendant and Appellee. JUL 2 3 2024 Bowen Greenwood Clerk of Supreme Court State Of Montana

Danny Lee Warner, Jr. moves this Court for an extension of time to file his opening brief. He states that he believes his brief is presently due on July 25, 2024, and that he needs additional time because of his placement in Ohio. He adds that "he has received nothing from this Court in months[.]" We observe that we received the District Court record on March 25, 2024, and that Warner received his first extension until June 24, 2024, to file his brief. A second Order granted him an extension until August 7, 2024, based on the motion's filing date.

Therefore, good cause shown, and to correct the timeframe in this appeal, IT IS ORDERED that Warner's Motion for Extension of Time is GRANTED, and that Warner shall PREPARE, FILE, and SERVE his opening brief on or before September 23, 2024.

The Clerk of the Supreme Court is directed to provide a copy of this Order to counsel of record and to Danny Lee Warner, Jr., at his last-known address, along with a copy of the Court's Appellate Handbook.

DATED thi ay ofJuly, 2024.

For the Court,

Chief Justice
