UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JAMES B. KIRTLEY,

Plaintiff,

vs.

ANDREW SAUL, 

Commissioner of Social Security,

Defendant.

Case No.: 1:19-cv-1062-EPG

ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANT’S 

MOTION FOR EXTENSION TO FILE 

RESPONSIVE BRIEF

The Court has before it Defendant’s Motion for Extension of Time to File Responsive 

Brief (ECF No. 20). Defendant requests a 14-day extension of time, to June 22, 2020, to file a

response to Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment. Defendant represents that the extension 

of time is needed because Defendant’s counsel was out of the office part of last week dealing 

with an unexpected medical issue, and that this impeded counsel’s ability to complete this and 

other assignments and comply with office requirements for internal review. Defendant’s counsel 

also indicates that she contacted Plaintiff’s counsel and that Plaintiff’s counsel was not willing to 

consent to the requested extension of time. 

Th Court finds good cause for, and accordingly GRANTS an extension of time, to June 

22, 2020, for Defendant to file a response brief. However, no further extensions of time will be 

granted. All subsequent deadlines are extended accordingly.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 8, 2020 /s/
