RECITALS 

1. By order dated March 26, 2010 (Dkt. 720 in 06-md-1791, Dkt. 36 in 07-cv-1115), 

the Court, upon consideration of the parties’ joint status report, set a schedule in this action for the 

submission of cross dispositive motions by the parties under which defendants were to renew their 

dispositive motion by April 28, 2010; plaintiffs were to file an opposition to defendants’ renewed 

motion and renew plaintiffs’ cross-motion for summary judgment by May 28, 2010; defendants 

were to reply and file an opposition to plaintiffs’ cross-motion by June 18, 2010; and plaintiffs 

were to file a cross-reply by July 9, 2010.

2. Counsel for the parties then stipulated (Dkt. 725 in 06-md-1791, Dkt. 37 in 07-cv1115 (filed Apr. 27, 2010)) to a revised briefing schedule under which defendants were to renew 

their dispositive motion by May 27, 2010; plaintiffs were to file an opposition to defendants’ 

renewed motion and renew plaintiffs’ cross-motion for summary judgment by June 24, 2010; 

defendants were to reply and file an opposition to plaintiffs’ cross-motion by July 15, 2010; and 

plaintiffs were to file a cross-reply by August 5, 2010. The Court issued an order adopting the 

revised briefing schedule pursuant to stipulation on April 28, 2010 (Dkt. 726 in 06-md-1791, Dkt. 

38 in 07-cv-1115). 

3. Defendants filed their renewed motion on May 27, 2010 (Dkt. 731 in 06-md-1791, 

Dkt. 39 in 07-cv-1115). 

4. Plaintiffs and defendants, through counsel, hereby submit this revised stipulation to 

extend the time for submission of plaintiffs’ opposition and renewed motion, defendants’ reply, 

and plaintiffs’ cross-reply, and request that the Court make this stipulation an order of the Court. 

5. The enlargement of time is necessary to accommodate other litigation burdens on 

plaintiffs’ counsel. Undersigned counsel, Mr. Kadidal, is the sole active attorney on this case and is

also managing attorney of the Guantánamo litigation at CCR. Since the filing of the government’s 

motion, another CCR attorney responsible for Guantánamo habeas litigation was incapacitated by 

illness and confined indefinitely to bed rest, making it impossible for that attorney to further litigate 

habeas cases (which would require visits to the base and to a secure facility in the Washington, 

D.C. area for access to classified factual information), and resulting in emergency reassignment of 

her habeas litigation responsibilities to Mr. Kadidal and one other attorney also already possessing 

security clearance. 

6. There has been one previous modification of the original schedule, as described 

above, which was stipulated to in order to accommodate burdens on defendants’ counsel. No 

prejudice will result from the requested enlargement of time and, as there are no further deadlines 

currently scheduled in the case, it will not affect any other schedule for the case.
