DECLARATION

YOSHINORI H. T. HIMEL, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1746(2), declares as follows:

1. I am an Assistant United States Attorney assigned the captioned case.

2. On April 13, 2006, I received from plaintiff a package covered by a paper entitled

"Rule 36: Request for Admissions," asking for more than 70 admissions.

3. The package contained a disk. Printed from the disk are fifteen more sets of

admission requests. An example, Set 3, contains 228 admission requests in 13 pages. The

fifteen sets from the disk total 129 pages.

4. I estimate that the work of researching plaintiff's thousands of propositions for

admission, partial admission or denial will take another 30 days. I believe that 30 more days

is both necessary and sufficient to finish the task.

4. On May 12, 2006, I paged plaintiff but did not receive a response. I called

plaintiff's mother in Vallejo and asked her to relay my request for this 30-day extension. At

this writing I have not heard back from plaintiff.

5. There has been no previous extension of this time.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on

May 30, 2006.

YOSHINORI H. T. HIMEL

ORDER

It is APPROVED and SO ORDERED. Response to plaintiff's requests for admissions

served April 12, 2006, shall be due June 14, 2006.
