STIPULATION AND ORDER TO EXTEND THE DEADLINE FOR PLAINTIFF TO RESPOND TO THE FBI AGENT DEFENDANTS MOTION TO STAY DISCOVERY [ECF No. 58]. (First Request)
CAM FERENBACH, Magistrate Judge.
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED and AGREED by and between Defendants GENE M. TIERNEY, MATTHEW A. ZITO, and THAYNE A. LARSON (hereinafter referred to collectively as the "FBI Agent Defendants,"), by and through their counsel GREG ADDINGTON, and Plaintiff SCOTT FRIEDMAN, by and through his counsel, MELANIE A. HILL and LISA A. RASMUSSEN, that the deadline for Plaintiff to file a response to the FBI Agent Defendants Motion to Stay Discovery [ECF No. 58] ("the Motion") be extended to Friday, September 7, 2018.
IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED and AGREED that the deadline for the FBI Agent Defendants and Defendant United States, who filed a joinder to the FBI Agent Defendants Motion, to file a reply in support of the Motion be extended to Tuesday, September 18, 2018.
This Stipulation is executed for the following reasons:
1. AUSA Addington filed a Motion to Dismiss [ECF No. 39] on behalf of the United States only on July 26, 2018.
2. AUSA Addington filed a Motion to Dismiss [ECF No. 55] on behalf of the FBI Agent Defendants on August 16, 2018.
3. The Plaintiff's response to the United States and the FBI Agent Defendants' Motions to Dismiss is due on Friday, September 7, 2018.
4. Given that the Motion to Stay raises similar legal arguments that are also raised in the FBI Agent Defendants' Motions to Dismiss with respect to qualified immunity and the sufficiency of Friedman's complaint, Plaintiff is requesting a short extension of the briefing schedule to address the arguments in each response simultaneously.
5. The parties propose the following briefing schedule:
a. The deadline for Plaintiff to file a response to the Motion to Stay Discovery [ECF No. 58] be extended from Tuesday, September 4, 2018 to Friday, September 7, 2018.
b. The deadline for the FBI Agent Defendants and Defendant United States, who filed a joinder to the FBI Agent Defendants Motion, to file a reply in support of the Motion be extended to September 18, 2018.
6. The request for additional time in this Stipulation is made in good faith and not for the purposes of delay.
ORDER

Based on the parties proposed briefing schedule, and finding that the extension request is made in good faith and not for the purposes of undue delay,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the deadline for Plaintiff to file a response to the Motion to Stay Discovery [ECF No. 58] be extended from Tuesday, September 4, 2018 to Friday, September 7, 2018.
