Citizenship and Immigration Services of Plaintiff’s application for adjustment of

status to permanent residence. Plaintiff also seeks to enjoin United States

Immigration and Customs Enforcement from removing Plaintiff pursuant to an

order of voluntary departure issued in 1994.

On April 2, 2015, Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss for Lack of

Jurisdiction and for Partial Summary Judgment. (ECF No. 22.) On May 4, 2015,

Plaintiff filed a motion to stay proceedings pending a decision in the Fifth Circuit 

case of State of Texas v. United States, No. 15-40238 (5th Cir.). (ECF No. 26.)

Defendants opposed Plaintiff’s motion. (ECF No. 31.) On September 3, 2015, the 

Court heard argument on Defendants’ motion to dismiss and for summary 

judgment and took the pending motions under submission. (ECF No. 40.) 

On January 26, 2016, the Court issued an Order to Show Cause directing the 

Parties to address “why this case should not be stayed pending issuance of the 

Supreme Court’s decision” in United States of America, et al. v. State of Texas, et 

al., No. 15-674. (ECF No. 41.) The order directed the Parties to respond by 

February 5, 2016. 

The Parties respectfully request and stipulate to an order extending the 

Parties’ time to respond to the Order to Show Cause by fourteen days, from 

February 5, 2016, until and including February 19, 2016. Defendants require that 

extension due to recent inclement weather that closed the offices of Defendants’ 

counsel for several days before and after the Court issued its Order to Show Cause, 

followed by several days of travel by Defendants’ counsel to Los Angeles for a 

court hearing in an unrelated matter. 

This requested time modification will have no effect on the schedule for this 

case.

In an email dated February 3, 2016, counsel for Plaintiff stated that Plaintiff 

would stipulate to a request to extend the Parties’ time to respond to the Order to

Undersigned counsel for Defendants attests he has on file all holographic 

signatures corresponding to any signatures indicated by a conformed signature 

(“/s/”) within this Stipulation.

In addition to this Stipulation, previous time modifications in this case 

consist of the following: 

On September 25, 2014, the parties stipulated to extend the time for 

Defendants to answer or otherwise respond to the Complaint so that Plaintiff could 

file an amended complaint to account for additional administrative action that had 

occurred since the filing of her original complaint. (ECF No. 10.) On September 

29, 2014, the Court endorsed the stipulation. (ECF No. 11.) 

On March 2, 2015, the Court granted in part and denied in part Defendants’ 

February 26, 2015, unopposed motion to extend their February 26, 2015, deadline 

to file their motion for summary judgment until and including April 27, 2015. 

(ECF No. 18.) The Court’s March 2, 2015, order granted Defendants until and 

including March 19, 2015, to file their motion for summary judgment. (ECF No. 

19.)

On March 20, 2015, Defendants filed a second unopposed motion to extend 

their time to file their motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 20.) On March 20, 

2015, the Court granted Defendants the motion and granted Defendants until and 

including April 2, 2015, to file their motion for summary judgment. (ECF No. 21.)

On August 12, 2015, the Parties stipulated to continue the hearing date on 

Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss and for Partial Summary Judgment from August 

20, 2015, to September 3, 2015. (ECF No. 38.) On August 13, 2015, the Court 

endorsed the stipulation. (ECF No. 39.)

Thus, for the reasons set forth above and for good cause show, the Parties 

request and stipulate to an order extending the Parties’ time to respond to the Order
