Case No. 1:13-cv-00477-SMS
ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S
MOTION FOR AN EXTENSION OF TIME

v.
(Doc. 5)
CAROLYN W. COLVIN, Acting
Commissioner of Social Security,

14

Defendant.

15
16

On April 2, 2013, Lena Garcia filed a complaint, pro se and in forma pauperis, regarding SSI

17

benefits for her daughter, Serenidy Unique Serna. On April 10, 2013, prior to issuing a summons

18

upon Defendant, the Court dismissed the complaint because it failed to state a claim for which this

19

Court could grant relief and because Ms. Garcia could not bring her daughter’s case without

20

retaining an attorney. The Court gave Ms. Garcia thirty days (until May 10, 2013) to remedy these

21

defects.

22
23

Ms. Garcia now asks for an extension. The Court grants an additional thirty (30) days (until
Monday, June 10, 2013). No further extension shall be granted.

24

The Office of the Clerk shall serve this order upon Plaintiff by mail.

25

IT IS SO ORDERED.
