IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

BIBI RAKHSANA HAYEE,

Plaintiff, No. 2:09-cv-02285 KJN

vs.

MICHAEL J. ASTRUE, ORDER

Commissioner of Social Security,

Defendant. 

 /

On May 10, 2010, counsel for plaintiff filed a Stipulation and [Proposed] Order

Extending Plaintiff’s Time to respond to Defendant’s Answer. (Dkt. No. 20.) This request for

an extension of time was filed on the date plaintiff’s response was due. The proposed order

attached to this stipulation stated that the stipulation showed “good cause,” and that it was a “first

extension” of time. 

Yet, the accompanying stipulation does not affirmatively show good cause, and in fact

fails to articulate a specific basis for the request for an extension of time. Furthermore, the

request for an extension of time is not a first request, but is a second request for an extension. A1

first request for an extension of time was granted by this court on April 22, 2010, and provided

plaintiff until May 10, 2010, to respond. (Dkt No. 19.)

However, in light of the parties stipulated request, the request for an extension of time

to June 9, 2010, is hereby GRANTED. No further extensions of time will be permitted absent

leave of court, and good cause shown. See Fed. R. Civ. Proc. 6(b) (providing that the court may

grant an extension of time “for good cause”).

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: May 13, 2010
