JOINT STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER FOR EXTENSION OF TIME FOR DEFENDANT TO RESPOND TO PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT

KENDALL J. NEWMAN, Magistrate Judge.

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED, by the parties, through their respective counsel of record, that the time for responding to Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment be extended from June 1, 2018 to June 29, 2018. This is Defendant's second request for extension. Good cause exists to grant Defendant's request for extension. Counsel has been out intermittent medical leave due to her ongoing medical issues. Counsel has over 75+ pending social security cases, which require two or more dispositive motions a week until July. Counsel also has a pending Ninth Circuit matters that require additional levels of review, several pending civil rights matters which require imminent attention and investigation, and an ongoing legal opinion research issue before the agency, which also requires additional levels of review. Counsel was also out of the office last week for the Memorial Day weekend holiday. Due to current workload demands and leave, Counsel became behind on her heavy caseload and needs additional time to adequately review the transcript and properly respond to Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment. Defendant makes this request in good faith with no intention to unduly delay the proceedings. The parties further stipulate that the Court's Scheduling Order shall be modified accordingly.
