It is hereby stipulated by and between the United States of America and claimants Hector Rodriguez, Sr. and Zoila Rodriguez, through undersigned counsel, as follows:

1. On or about February 5, 2014, claimants Hector Rodriguez, Sr. and Zoila Rodriguez filed a claim, in the administrative forfeiture proceedings, with the Drug Enforcement Administration with respect to the Approximately $28,500.00 in U.S. Currency (hereafter "defendant currency"), which was seized between November 26, 2013.

2. The Drug Enforcement Administration has sent the written notice of intent to forfeit required by 18 U.S.C. § 983(a)(1)(A) to all known interested parties. The time has expired for any person to file a claim to the defendant currency under 18 U.S.C. § 983(a)(2)(A)-(E), and no person other than the claimant has filed a claim to the defendant currency as required by law in the administrative forfeiture proceeding.

3. Under 18 U.S.C. § 983(a)(3)(A), the United States is required to file a complaint for forfeiture against the defendant currency and/or to obtain an indictment alleging that the defendant currency is subject to forfeiture within ninety days after a claim has been filed in the administrative forfeiture proceedings, unless the court extends the deadline for good cause shown or by agreement of the parties. That deadline was May 5, 2014.

4. By Stipulation and Order filed May 2, 2014, the parties stipulated to extend to July 7, 2014, the time in which the United States is required to file a civil complaint for forfeiture against the defendant currency and/or to obtain an indictment alleging that the defendant currency is subject to forfeiture.

5. By Stipulation and Order filed July 3, 2014, the parties stipulated to extend to September 5, 2014, the time in which the United States is required to file a civil complaint for forfeiture against the defendant currency and/or to obtain an indictment alleging that the defendant currency is subject to forfeiture.

6. By Stipulation and Order filed August 29, 2014, the parties stipulated to extend to November 4, 2014, the time in which the United States is required to file a civil complaint for forfeiture against the defendant currency and/or to obtain an indictment alleging that the defendant currency is subject to forfeiture.

7. As provided in 18 U.S.C. § 983(a)(3)(A), the parties wish by agreement to further extend to February 4, 2015, the time in which the United States is required to file a civil complaint for forfeiture against the defendant currency and/or to obtain an indictment alleging that the defendant currency is subject to forfeiture.

8. Accordingly, the parties agree that the deadline by which the United States shall be required to file a complaint for forfeiture against the defendant currency and/or to obtain an indictment alleging that the defendant currency are subject to forfeiture shall be extended to February 4, 2015.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
