CIVIL NO. 1:15-cv-00975-SK0

STIPULATION AND ORDER FOR 

DEFENDANT’S FIRST EXTENSION 

OF TIME TO RESPOND TO 

PLAINTIFF’S OPENING BRIEF

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED, by and between the undersigned attorneys, subject to the 

approval of the Court, that the deadline for Defendant to file her Opposition Brief be extended 30 days

to April 27, 2016. All other deadlines in the Court’s scheduling order are extended accordingly.

This is Defendant’s first request for an extension of time to respond to Plaintiff’s opening brief. 

This request is the result of a heavy workload for counsel responsible for briefing. Additionally, counsel 

was out of the office from March 9 through March 17, 2016 and is currently working through a backlog 

of work.
