I, CAROLYN K. DELANEY, declare as follows: 

1. I am an Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District 

of California and am familiar with the facts described below. 

2. The sole person responsible for handling civil immigration

matters in the Eastern District of California is Assistant U.S.

Attorney Audrey B. Hemesath. Thus, this case is assigned to Ms.

Hemesath. 

3. On December 14, 2006, Ms. Hemesath had to take a sudden

medical leave of absence due to pregnancy-related hyperemesis

(severe vomiting). Ms. Hemesath anticipates that her condition will

preclude her from returning to work for at least four weeks.

4. Ms. Hemesath is the only person in this office with the

unique expertise to handle the present matter.

5. The defendant’s answer is due on December 18, 2006. 

6. The defendant has not previously requested any 

extensions of time in which to file its answer. 

7. The defendant is not in custody. 

8. Based upon Ms. Hemesath's urgent medical condition, on

behalf of the government I am requesting an extension of the time

for filing the government's answer. Accordingly, defendant

respectfully requests an extension, until January 18, 

2007, in which to file the answer.

9. On December 15, 2006, I spoke to James Makasian, the

attorney for petitioner, and informed him that I was applying for

this extension of time. He indicated that he objected to my

request.
