JOINT STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE DEFENDANT'S NOTICE OF VOLUNTARY REMAND OF THE CASE OR CROSS-MOTION TO AFFIRM

(Third Extension Request)

PEGGY A. LEEN, Magistrate Judge.

Plaintiff Theresa M. Weesner (Plaintiff) and Defendant Carolyn W. Colvin, Acting Commissioner of Social Security (Defendant), stipulate, with the approval of this Court, to an extension of time to file Defendant's Notice Of Voluntary Remand Of The Case or Cross-Motion To Affirm by one week from the current deadline of February 20, 2017 to February 27, 2017, with all other dates in this Court's Order Concerning Review Of Social Security Cases extended accordingly. This is Defendant's third request for an extension.

Good cause exists to grant Defendant's request for extension. Counsel needs additional time to make time for the agency's review process for new attorneys, which requires additional levels of review. Due to scheduling conflicts and the upcoming President's Day holiday, Counsel will not be able to complete the agency's review process in time for the current deadline. Defendant makes this request in good faith with no intention to unduly delay the proceedings. Plaintiff has no objection and has stipulated to the requested relief.

[PROPOSED] ORDER

For good cause appearing therein, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Joint Stipulation for Extension of Time to file Defendant's Notice Of Voluntary Remand Of The Case or Cross-Motion To Affirm is GRANTED. Defendant shall file its response to Plaintiff's Motion on or before February 27, 2017. All other deadlines shall be extended accordingly.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
