MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME

(First Request)

Pursuant to Rule 6(b)(1) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Rule 6-1 of this Court's Local Rules, the United States moves for an order providing the United States with a fourteen (14) day extension of time, from May 12, 2017 to May 26, 2017, in which to respond to the Complaint in this matter. There have not been any previous requests for such an extension of time.

In support of this motion, the United States relies on the Memorandum of Points and Authorities below.

MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 6(b)(1) and Local Rule 6-1 allow a party to request additional time to perform an act. In this case, the United States requests additional time to file a response to the complaint for the reasons set forth below.

Undersigned defense counsel has been, and is currently, out of the office on unexpected leave for a sick child and unable to dedicate the time necessary to complete a response to the complaint. Counsel will also be out of the office one day next week.

Based on these circumstances, the United States requests an extension of time from May 12, 2017 to May 26, 2017, to file a response to the Complaint.

This motion is brought in good faith and not for purposes of undue delay.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
