ORDER TO FILE MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT

SUSAN ILLSTON, District Judge.

Plaintiff Terri Norman, who has filed this Social Security appeal pro se, has missed the deadline to file a motion for summary judgment or for remand. The Procedural Order in this case stated that plaintiff shall serve and file a motion for summary judgment or for remand within 28 days of service of defendant's answer. Docket No. 2. Defendant filed the answer on November 1, 2017. Docket No. 5. The Court will allow plaintiff a short extension of time to file the motion.

The new deadline for plaintiff to file a motion for summary judgment or for remand is February 14, 2018. If plaintiff does not meet this deadline, this case may be dismissed for failure to prosecute. As explained in the Procedural Order, Dkt. No. 2, the government shall serve and file any opposition or cross-motion within 28 days of service of plaintiff's motion. Plaintiff may then serve and file a reply within 14 days of service of the government's opposition or cross-motion.
