CIVIL NO. 2:07-CV-1138-KJM

STIPULATION AND ORDER TO EXTEND

TIME

The parties hereby stipulate by counsel, with the Court’s approval as indicated by issuance of the

attached Order, that Defendant shall have a second extension of time of 21 days to respond to Plaintiff’s

motion for summary judgment. From December through last week, three-to-four full time attorneys are

or have been out on extended leave for medical, professional, bereavement and military purposes, which

has resulted in many case reassignments and additional work for the attorneys in the office. In addition,

during the month of February, the undersigned counsel has had to prepare for a Ninth Circuit oral

argument and prepare an appeal recommendation, which involves a very short and unpredictable time

frame. Due to this extensive work load, counsel for Defendant needs additional time to respond to

Plaintiff’s brief. The current due date is February 27, 2008. The new due date will be March 19, 2008.
