MINUTES of Proceedings: Telephonic Status Conference held before Judge Mustafa T. Kasubhai. Petitioner's Amended Petition is due 10/19/2026. Respondents' Response to the Petition is due 11/2/2026. Petitioner's Reply is due 12/11/2026. The documents ordered produced in ECF No. 8 remain due by 12/11/2026. Pursuant to Rule 6(a) of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases in the United States District Courts, and based upon the specific allegations before the Court, the Court finds good cause to authorize discovery under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. See Bracy v. Gramley, 520 U.S. 899, 909 (1997) (good cause exists for discovery in habeas cases "where specific allegations before the court show reason to believe that the petitioner may, if the facts are fully developed, be able to demonstrate that he is... entitled to relief") (citation omitted). Thus, the Court's order at ECF No. 8 does not preclude Petitioner from seeking discovery sooner than 12/11/2026, pursuant to properly served requests for production. The evidentiary hearing and oral argument currently set for 12/18/2026 is RESET to 1/11/2027 at 9:00AM in Eugene Courtroom 1 before Judge Mustafa T. Kasubhai. Lorena Reynolds and Kurt Hermansen present as counsel for petitioner. Cameron Perla present as counsel for respondents. (Court Reporter: Shellene Iverson.) (bd) (Entered: 10/13/2026)
