05/28/2025Order/ProceduralFiled Order Granting Motion and Regarding Counsel. Humboldt County has filed a motion for an extension of time to file a brief of amicus curiae in support of appellant. The motion is granted. Humboldt County shall have until June 20, 2025, to file and serve its amicus brief. Given this extension of time, respondent shall have until July 21, 2025, to file and serve an answering brief responding to both the opening brief and the amicus brief. Attorney Anthony Gordon filed a notice of appearance on May 21, 2025, informing this court that he and Kevin Pasquale are counsel for appellant. However, the extension motion discussed above was filed by Mr. Gordon. It thus appears that Mr. Gordon and Mr. Pasquale are counsel for amicus curiae Humboldt County rather than appellant. The clerk shall modify the docket accordingly. If any party objects to this modification, they shall so inform this court, in writing, within 7 days of the date of this order. (SC)25-23762
