STIPULATION TO EXTEND BRIEFING SCHEDULE; ORDER

SANDRA M. SNYDER, Magistrate Judge.

TO THE OF THE HONORABLE SANDRA M. SNYDER, MAGISTARATE JUDGE OF THE DISTRICT COURT:

Plaintiff Michael J. Clamp ("Plaintiff") and defendant Carolyn Colvin, Acting Commissioner of Social Security ("Defendant"), through their undersigned counsel of record, hereby stipulate, subject to the approval of the Court, to extend the time for Plaintiff to provide Defendant with Plaintiff's Settlement Letter Brief to August 30, 2016; and that Defendant shall have until October 4, 2016, to provide a response, all other dates as set forth in the Case Management Order are adjusted accordingly.

An extension of time for plaintiff is needed in order to properly address the issues within the administrative record in this matter as well as the demands arising from complications related to Counsel Spouse's terminal illness which has unexpectedly worsened in the last few weeks. Subsequent to a surgical procedure on July 6, 2016 to remove tumors in the spine/hip as a result of stage 4 breast cancer, Counsel's spouse was not discharged until July 9, 2016 and then Counsel's spouse was re-admitted to the hospital for 5 days on July 15, 2016 due to complications arising from the July 6th surgery. Counsel's spouse was also recently admitted on August 1, 2016 and then discharged on August 5, 2016, to provide treatment for intractable pain related to the terminal illness.

Counsel sincerely apologizes to the court for any inconvenience this may have had upon it or its staff.

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff may have an extension of time, to and including August 30, 2016, for Plaintiff to provide Defendant with Plaintiff's Settlement Letter Brief; Defendant may have an extension of time to October 4, 2016 to provide a response, all other dates as set forth in the Case Management Order are adjusted accordingly.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
