 Plaintiff, 

STIPULATION AND [proposed] 

ORDER FOR EXTENSION OF 

TIME TO FILE PLAINTIFF’S 

 v. MOTION FOR SUMMARY 

Andrew Saul, JUDGMENT 

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, 

 Defendant. 

_______________________________________/ 

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties, through their respective 

undersigned attorneys, and with the permission of the Court, that plaintiff’s time to file a motion 

for summary judgment is extended to April 17, 2020. 

 This is a first extension. Plaintiff’s attorney must work through an unusually large number

cases are not halted altogether because of the COVID—19 situation --- having to handle an aboveaverage number of hearings of these cases because his local hearing office off-loaded many to a 

second hearing office. However, in part because of canceling a vacation because of this virus, 

counsel has almost no hearings in April. Counsel is attempting to schedule and complete this 

backlog of motions during April.
