Case No. 1:13-cv-01054-SAB (SS)
STIPULATION AND PROPOSED ORDER
FOR AN EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE
AND SERVE THE CERTIFIED
ADMINISTRATIVE RECORD

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties, through their respective counsel

21

of record, that the time for Defendant to serve a copy of the certified administrative record (CAR) on

22

Plaintiff and to file a copy with the Court be extended from January 24, 2014, to February 24, 2014.

This is Defendant’s first request for an extension of time.
Defendant respectfully requests this additional time because the agency component
responsible for production of the administrative records for civil court actions, Office of Disability
Adjudication and Review (ODAR), has not yet been able to produce the certified administrative
record for this matter. Following the October 2013 furlough, ODAR continues to work through a
substantial backlog of cases. The Office of the General Counsel is working diligently with ODAR to

prioritize its substantial backlog of administrative records that must be produced for thousands of
pending civil actions nationwide.
The parties further stipulate that the Court’s Scheduling Order shall be modified accordingly.
Defendant apologizes to the Court for any inconvenience caused by this delay.
