attorneys of record, hereby stipulate, subject to the approval of the Court, to the following: 

 1. In this case, Plaintiff seeks a writ of mandamus requiring the United States Citizenship 

and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) to render a decision on his application to register 

permanent residence or adjust status, USCIS Form I-485. 

 2. Plaintiff filed this action on January 8, 2015, ECF Doc. 1, and served the United States

(“RFE”) in connection with his I-485 application, asking him to provide to USCIS by May 15, 

2015, certain documents and information related to his eligibility for permanent residence. 

 5. In order to allow USCIS sufficient time to receive and consider the documents and 

information requested in the February 20, 2015, RFE, and to consider an alternative resolution to 

this case before the parties or the Court expend additional resources and effort on this litigation,

the parties hereby respectfully ask this Court to extend Defendants’ time to answer, or otherwise
