TO THE HONORABLE SANDRA M. SNYDER, MAGISTRATE JUDGE
OF THE DISTRICT COURT:
Plaintiff Dennis Boyle (“Plaintiff”) and defendant Michael Astrue,
Commissioner of Social Security (“Defendant”), through their undersigned counsel
of record, hereby stipulate, subject to the approval of the Court, to extend the time
for Plaintiff to file Plaintiff’s Opening Brief to April 12, 2013; and that Defendant
shall have until May 13, 2013, to file his opposition, if any is forthcoming. Any
reply by plaintiff will be due May 24, 2013.

1

An extension of time for plaintiff is needed due to a serious illness in

2

Counsel’s family. Counsel Spouse receives chemotherapy treatment for her Stage

3

IV breast cancer which metastasized initially to her liver and recently spread to her

4

lungs and spine. Counsel requires the additional time to file the Joint Stipulation to

5

allow him to devote the appropriate time to assist his Spouse and his two

6

kindergarten and pre-school aged children through this obviously stressful

7

experience. Counsel sincerely apologizes to the court for any inconvenience this

8

may have had upon it or its staff.
