hearing plaintiff Rebecca Rued stated on the record that she had no

opposition to the motion seeking dismissal of the action as to her. 

In light of plaintiff Rebecca Rued’s verbal statement of nonopposition at the hearing and good cause appearing, the undersigned

will recommend that defendant’s motion to dismiss be granted.

At the hearing, plaintiff Douglas Rued requested an

extension of time to file opposition to defendant’s motion for

summary judgment. In light of plaintiff Douglas Rued’s pro per

status, the request will be granted. However, no further extension

of time will be granted for this purpose. Plaintiff Douglas Rued

shall file and serve by overnight delivery his opposition to the

motion by February 2, 2007. The government’s reply, if any, shall be

filed and served by February 13, 2007. The hearing on defendant’s

motion for summary judgment is continued to February 16, 2007, at

10:00 a.m. in Courtroom 27. The status (pretrial scheduling)

conference is vacated at this time pending disposition of the

defendant’s motion for summary judgment.

Accordingly, the court HEREBY ORDERS that

1. Plaintiff Douglas Rued's oral request for an extension

of time to file opposition to defendant’s motion for summary judgment

is granted with the briefing schedule as set forth above;

2. The hearing on defendant’s motion for summary judgment

is continued to February 16, 2007, at 10:00 a.m. in Courtroom 27; and

3. The previously scheduled status (pretrial scheduling)

conference is vacated pending further notice.
