STIPULATION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE AMENDED OPPOSITION TO APPLICATION FOR APPROVAL OF SETTLEMENT PROPOSAL

AND ORDER THEREON

ROBERT C. JONES, District Judge.

This Stipulation by and between Debt Acquisition Company of America V, LLC and DA Castaic, LLC (collectively, "DACA"), and William J. Barkett, Castaic Partners, LLC, Castaic Partners II, LLC and Castaic Partners III, LLC (collectively, the "Barkett Parties") and those Direct Lenders represented by Lisa A. Rasmussen as their attorney of record (the "Rasmussen Direct Lenders"), through their undersigned attorneys, is made with reference to the following facts:

1. On January 29, 2016, the Barkett Parties filed their Application for Approval of Settlement Proposal and Request for Hearing (ECF No. 413). By minute order entered February 2. 2016 (ECF No. 418) the Court set the Application w for hearing on February 12, 2016, a date which preceded the time when opposition would normally have been due under the District Local Rules.

2. DACA and the Rasmussen Direct Lenders each filed responses to the motion shortly prior to the scheduled hearing. At the hearing, counsel for DACA requested Court permission to file an amended response to the Application which would also address the matters raised by the Rasmussen Direct Lenders' response.

3. By minute order entered after the hearing, the Court set the matter for a continued hearing on April 15, 2016, and set March 15, 2016 as the last day for filing DACA's amended response to the Application.

4. Counsel for DACA represents to other counsel and to the Court that the March 15 deadline (which falls on a Tuesday) is extremely inconvenient as it is the day after counsel for DACA will return from a scheduled vacation, and that reservations for that vacation trip were made in January. Counsel of DACA has requested, and other counsel have agreed, that as a matter of professional courtesy the response deadline should be continued for three days, from Tuesday, March 15 to Friday, March 18.

WHEREFORE the parties, through their undersigned counsel, stipulate to the entry of an order providing as follows:

1. DACA may file an amended response to the Barkett Parties' Application for Approval of Settlement Proposal (ECF No. 413) on or before Friday, March 18, 2016.

SO STIPULATED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
