STIPULATION AND ORDER TO EXTEND BRIEFING SCHEDULE OF DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT

(First Request)

JAMES C. MAHAN, District Judge.

The undersigned parties, by and through their respective counsel of record, stipulate and agree to extend the briefing schedule related to Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment (ECF No. 34). The parties agree that Plaintiff shall have up to and including January 7, 2019, to file her response in Opposition to Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment and Defendant shall have up to and including January 25, 2019, to file its reply brief.

As the Court knows, Defendant filed an Errata to Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment on December 7, 2018 (ECF No. 35). Due to the impending holiday and as a courtesy to Plaintiff, the parties have agreed to a one-week extension for Plaintiff to file her responsive brief. Defendant also discussed with Plaintiff that Defense Counsel, Elayna J. Youchah, will be out of the office and traveling for several days to New York to be with her sister who is having surgery. This is the basis for requesting an extension to file the Reply.

For the above stated reason, the parties agree that Plaintiff shall have up to and including January 7, 2019 to file her response in Opposition to Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment and Defendant shall have up to and including January 25, 2019, to file its reply brief.

This stipulation and order is sought in good faith and not for the purpose of delay. There has been no prior request for extension.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
