UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

TERRANCE MARSH, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

NATIONS DIRECT MORTGAGE, LLC,

Defendant.

Case No. 1:23-cv-01518-KES-CDB

ORDER GRANTING MOTION FOR 

EXTENSION OF TIME FOR LEAVE TO 

AMEND COMPLAINT

(Doc. 42)

Pending before the Court is the motion of pro se Plaintiffs Terrance Marsh and Gesele 

Marsh (collectively, “Plaintiffs”) requesting an extension of time by 30 days to file an amended 

complaint. (Doc. 42). Plaintiffs represent that “due to circumstances beyond [their] control, being 

a family emergency, Plaintiffs were unable to respond in a timely manner.” (Id.). Plaintiffs 

represent these circumstances include “great delays in the postal system” and their “inability to EFile documents[.]” (Id.). Plaintiffs purport to renew their request for e-filing privileges. (Id.).

Plaintiffs’ renewed request for e-filing privileges is denied for the same reasons articulated 

in the Court’s December 16, 2024, order denying Plaintiffs’ motion for e-filing privileges. (Doc. 

41). Plaintiffs are reminded “that although they do not have access to electronically view the 

filings in the case, paper copies of all court orders (including minute orders) are mailed to them at 

the time of their issuance.” (Id. at 2).
