EX PARTE MOT. AND [PROPOSED] ORDER

GRANTING MOT. TO EXTEND TIME TO APPEAL 

FINAL JUDGMENT

- 2 - 19796\990213.1

2006 entry of Judgment in the case, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. Pro. 58 and Fed. R. App. Proc. 

4(a)(4)(A)(iii). 

Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 4(a)(5)(A) expressly provides that 

[t]he district court may extend the time to file a notice of appeal if 

(i) a party so moves no later than 30 days after the time prescribed 

by this Rule 4(a) expires; (ii) regardless of whether its motion is 

filed before or during the 30 days after the time prescribed by this 

Rule 4(a) expires, that party shows excusable neglect or good 

cause. 

Good cause for extension of the time to file an appeal in this matter is evidenced by the 

parties’ ongoing settlement discussions, where the settlement of this matter would promote 

judicial efficiency by negating the need for any appeal to be filed. Defendants concur with this 

Motion for an Extension and do not oppose the Motion. 

Fed. R. App. Proc. 4(a)(5)(B) allows for the filing of an ex parte motion where the motion 

requesting the extension is “filed before the expiration of the time prescribed in [Federal Rule of 

Appellate Procedure] 4(a)(1) . . . unless the court requires otherwise.” Local Rule 7-10 authorizes 

a party to file a motion ex parte where a Federal Rule authorizes such a filing under the 

circumstances, which is the case here. 

Concurrence to the filing of this document was obtained from Defendants’ counsel 

Richard P. Doyle, Jr. in compliance with General Order No. 45, Section X.
