July 30, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 10 Plaintiff moves this Court to order non-party Pennsylvania Department of Corrections to grant her two-hour sessions twice a week in her prison's law library. ECF No. #9 . The asserted reason is that Plaintiff is unable to find case law to support her forthcoming objections to the pending Report and Recommendation. ECF No. #8 .There is a well-established policy of non-interference by the courts in the day-to-day operation of prisons. See Tilley v. Allegheny Cnty. Jail, No. 09299, 2010 WL 1664900, at *5 (W.D. Pa. Feb.18, 2010) (internal citations omitted) (Hay, C. Mag. J.).

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff's Motion, ECF No. #9 is construed as a motion for extension of time to respond to the Report and Recommendation, and GRANTED. The deadline to submit objections to the Report and Recommendation, ECF No. #8 is extended to 9/2/2021. Signed by Magistrate Judge Maureen P. Kelly on 7/30/2021.
