A second extension of time is needed because Plaintiff’s Counsel’s Spouse 

recently began weekly chemotherapy treatment for her Stage IV breast cancer which 

metastasized initially to her liver and continues to spread to her lungs and spine. 

Counsel requires the additional time to file the Joint Stipulation to allow him to 

devote the appropriate time to assist his Spouse and his two elementary school aged 

children through this obviously stressful experience. Counsel sincerely apologizes 

to the court for any inconvenience this may have had upon it or its staff. 

DATE: July 30, 2014 Respectfully submitted,

The court notes that plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment and/or remand 

was filed on July 30, 2014. (ECF No. 17.) In light of the above, IT IS HEREBY 

ORDERED that plaintiff may have a retroactive extension of time, to and 

including July 30, 2014, in which to file Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment 

or Remand; Defendant may have an extension of time to August 29, 2014, to file 

his opposition, if any is forthcoming. Any reply by plaintiff will be due September 

2, 2014.

Furthermore, given the circumstances, the court would be willing to consider 

a stipulation for a further reasonable extension of time to file any reply brief, if 

necessary. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
