ORDER
JAMES C. MAHAN, District Judge.
Presently before the court is plaintiff Philippe Laurent's motion for an extension of time. (Doc. # 15). Plaintiff requests an extension in which to respond to defendant MTC Financial's motion to dismiss (doc. # 6).
Plaintiff, appearing pro se, represents that he is currently out of the country and is unable to prepare an opposition by the current deadline. As the court is obligated to hold pro se litigants to less stringent standards, the court will grant plaintiff's request for an extension. See, e.g., Haines v. Kerner, 404 U.S. 519 (1972)(Pro se parties are to be held to less stringent standards than those represented by counsel).
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, and DECREED that plaintiff's motion for an extension of time (doc. # 15) be, and the same hereby is, GRANTED. Plaintiff's opposition is due no later than August 1, 2014.
