Currier seeks an extension to June 11, 2007. Because the Court hears motions on

Friday mornings, however, the extension has been granted to the first Friday following the

date requested.

ORDER GRANTING IN PART AND

DENYING IN PART APPLICATION OF

CROSS-DEFENDANT PAUL CURRIER

Before the Court is cross-defendant Paul Currier’s (“Currier”) Application for Order,

filed May 25, 2007, by which Currier seeks an extension of time to move for default

judgment as against defendant Victor Crespin (“Crespin”). Currier represents he is the

successor-in-interest to plaintiff South City Press, the party in whose favor a Clerk’s default

was entered against Crespin on November 21, 2006. Good cause appearing, such request

is hereby GRANTED and the deadline for Currier to file a motion for default judgment is

hereby EXTENDED to June 15, 2007.1

By the above-referenced Application, Currier also seeks an extension of time to

“formally substitute in for South City Press” and “for Jeffrey Marc Weiss, counsel for South

City Press, to withdraw from this action.” (See Application for Order at 2.) No deadline has

been set for such substitution or withdrawal, and, consequently, no “extension” is

necessary. Because Currier’s standing as to the motion for default judgment is dependent

on the Court’s finding he is entitled to be substituted in place of South City Press, however,

the Court hereby GRANTS the application to the extent it seeks a date for filing a motion to

substitute and SETS June 15, 2007 as the deadline for Currier to file any such motion. The

Court hereby DENIES the application with respect to a date by which counsel for South

City Press must withdraw; no showing has been made that such motion is either

contemplated by or required of counsel.

Finally, Currier seeks an order shortening time for hearing of the above motions,

such that the hearing would be held no later than June 15, 2007. Currier has failed to show

that such an abbreviated schedule is warranted, however, and, accordingly, the request for

an order shortening time is hereby DENIED. Currier shall notice his motions for hearing in

accordance with a 35-day briefing schedule, see Civil L. R. 7-2, 7-3, and shall serve notice

of said motions on all parties who have appeared in the action.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 4, 2007
