Case No.: 1:14-cv-01434 - JLT
ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANT’S REQUEST
FOR AN EXTENSION OF TIME NUNC PRO
TUNC
(Doc. 15)

Plaintiff filed his opening brief in the action on June 12, 2015. (Doc. 14) Pursuant to the terms

18

of the Court’s Scheduling Order, Defendant’s response was to be filed within thirty days, or no later

19

than July 13, 2015. (Doc. 5-1 at 3) On July 13, 2015, the parties filed a stipulation for Defendant to

20

have an extension of time to file response (Doc. 15), which Defendant filed on July 14, 2015 (Doc. 16).

21

Because the Scheduling Order permits an extension of thirty days upon the stipulation of the parties,

22

the extension of time requested by Defendant was appropriate.

23
24

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Defendants’s request for an extension of time
(Doc. 16) is GRANTED nunc pro tunc.
