ORDER

This action is before the Court on Defendant Cameron 

International Corporation’s Motion for Extension of Time in Which 

to Respond to the Complaint (Doc. 7) and Defendant Halliburton 

Energy Services, Inc.’s Motion to Stay. (Doc. 20). 

In its motion, Cameron International Corporation (hereinafter 

“Cameron”), asserts that it has been named in over one hundred 

cases arising out of the explosion and fire onboard Transocean=s 

Deepwater Horizon drilling rig on April 4, 2010, and the ensuing 

oil spill. According to Defendant, in light of the sheer number 

of cases which have been filed in multiple jurisdictions, 

additional time is needed in order to prepare appropriate motions, 

answers or responses. Defendant Cameron requests that the deadline 

for its answers, motions or other responses be extended to August 

16, 2010. Upon consideration, and for good cause shown, the 

motion is GRANTED in part, and DENIED in part. The deadline for 

Case 1:10-cv-00321-B Document 23 Filed 07/01/10 Page 1 of 2

Defendant Cameron’s answer, motion or other response is extended 

to July 30, 2010. 

Also pending before the Court is Defendant Halliburton Energy 

Services, Inc.’s Motion to Stay. (Doc. 20). Upon consideration, 

the Motion to Stay is DENIED with leave to re-file after 

responsive pleadings have been filed. See Burke v. BP Corporation 

North America, Inc., et al., No. 10-cv-00195-WS-M (S.D. Ala. May 

25, 2010) (order denying motion for stay (Doc. 41)). 

DONE this 1st day of July, 2010.
