DEFENDANT'S APPLICATION FOR AN EX PARTE ORDER EXTENDING DEFENDANT'S TIME TO RESPOND TO PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT BY THIRTY (30) DAYS CERTIFICATE OF SERVICE BY MAIL
CRAIG M. KELLISON, Magistrate Judge.
Pursuant to Local Rule 144, Defendant, through counsel, hereby submits this application for an ex parte order extending Defendant's time to respond to Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment by thirty (30) days, i.e., up to and including June 30, 2014. Defendant files this application ex parte because counsel has been unable to contact Plaintiff regarding a joint stipulation to a like extension. Counsel has called the telephone number listed for Plaintiff on the Court's docket, but there is no answer.
In Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment, she alleges that she submitted medical records that are not included in the administrative record. (Plaintiff did not allege this in her complaint.)
Counsel needs to investigate the allegedly missing records. This investigation will likely take some time, because it will involve queries to an agency field office as well as agency headquarters.
ORDER
In light of cause shown, the Court hereby grants ex parte Defendant's application for an extension of thirty (30) days, i.e., up to and including June 30, 2014, for Defendant to respond to Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment.
