TO THE HONORABLE BARBARA A. MCAULIFFE, MAGISTRATE
JUDGE OF THE DISTRICT COURT:
Plaintiff Terry Sharp (“Plaintiff”) and defendant Carolyn Colvin, Acting
Commissioner of Social Security (“Defendant”), through their undersigned counsel
of record, hereby stipulate, pursuant to the Court’s Scheduling Order, to extend for
60 days the time for Plaintiff to file Plaintiff’s Opening Brief to November 17,
2014; and that Defendant shall have until December 17, 2014, to file her

1

opposition, if any is forthcoming. Any reply by plaintiff will be due December 31,

2

2014.

3

An extension of time is needed because Plaintiff’s Counsel’s Spouse

4

undergoes chemotherapy treatment for her Stage IV breast cancer which

5

metastasized initially to her liver and continues to progress there and in her lungs,

6

throat, and spine which required recent hospitalization to treat. Counsel requires the

7

additional time to file the Joint Position Statement to allow him to devote the

8

appropriate time to assist his Spouse and his two elementary school aged children

9

through this obviously stressful experience. Counsel sincerely apologizes to the

10

court for any inconvenience this may have had upon it or its staff.

DATE: October 1, 2014
