Plaintiff JOHN W. BUSBY II, TRUSTEE OF THE EDWARD PESTANA TRUST 

(“Busby”) and Defendants GARY HERD and NANCY HERD (“the Herds”), by and through their 

counsel and pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 6(b)(1)(A) and Local Rule 144(a), hereby 

stipulate to an 14-day extension of time to respond to Busby’s Complaint in this matter. 

Busby filed this action on February 4, 2015, in Alameda County Superior Court. The action 

was removed to Federal Court on February 26, 2015. Counsel for the Herds accepted service of 

the Complaint on March 16, 2015. Pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 

12(a)(1)(A)(i), the Herds are required to respond to the Complaint on or before May 15, 2013. 

Pursuant to Eastern District Local Rule 144(a), the Parties stipulate and agree to extend these dates 

for 14-days to May 29, 2015. The parties agree that good cause exists for this extension to allow 

the Herds time to respond to the Complaint. There have been no prior extensions of time for the 

Herds to respond to the Complaint, and there appears to be no prejudice extending the time for the 

Herds to respond to the Complaint.

WHEREFORE, for the foregoing reasons, the parties stipulate that the Herds shall have up to and 

including May 29, 2015 to answer or otherwise respond to Busby’s Complaint.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.

Dated: May 19, 2015.
