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

counsel of record, with the Court’s approval, that Defendant’s time for responding to Plaintiff’s 

Motion for Summary Judgment be extended thirty (30) days from September 16, 2024, to 

October 16, 2024. This is Defendant’s first request for an extension. Counsel for Plaintiff has no 

objection to Defendant’s request for an extension. 

Good cause exists for this request. Defendant respectfully requests this additional time

week. Given competing workload requirements an extension until October 16, 2024, will provide 

the opportunity for the undersigned Counsel for Defendant to prioritize completing the response

and Plaintiff’s counsel for any inconvenience caused by this request and delay. All other dates in 

the Court’s Scheduling Order shall be extended accordingly.
