Appellant Righthaven LLC (“Righthaven”) hereby moves for an extension
of time to file its opening brief pursuant to Circuit Rule 31-2.2(b) (the “Motion”).
The Motion requests a short 8-day extension of time for Righthaven to file its
opening brief in this appeal. If the Motion is granted, Righthaven will file its
opening brief on or before November 22, 2011.
Righthaven’s request for an extension of time is supported by diligence and
substantial need. Righthaven’s counsel in this matter has been advised that he will
be undergoing a surgical procedure tomorrow, November 15, 2011. Due to
scheduling conflicts between the surgical center and his surgeon, counsel was only
recently advised that the procedure will be performed tomorrow morning. As a
result, counsel has diligently worked to adjust his calendar and to tend to urgent
matters before undergoing the operation. He has additionally been required to tend
to pre-operative issues and administrative matters in a short period of time that has
resulted in his inability to meet the November 14, 2011 opening brief filing date in
this matter. In view of counsel’s surgical procedure and his anticipated recovery
time, an 8-day extension of time is sought through this filing. If granted,
Righthaven’s opening brief will be due on November 22, 2011. Opposing counsel
has been advised of the foregoing circumstances and consents to the requested
extension of time.
