Case No.: 1:16-CV-00816-GSA
JOINT STIPULATION AND ORDER
FOR EXTENSION OF TIME FOR
DEFENDANT TO RESPOND TO
PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR
SUMMARY JUDGMENT
19
20
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED, by the parties, through their respective counsel of record,
21
that the time for responding to Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment be extended for two
22
days from August 16, 2017 to August 18, 2017. This is Defendant’s fifth request for extension.
23
Good cause exists to grant Defendant’s request for extension. Additional time is required as
24
Counsel was out on medical leave the week prior from her debilitating chronic migraines, which
25
causes partial vision loss. At the time Counsel made her last request for one-week extension,
26
Counsel did not anticipate having continuing chronic migraines. Counsel has over 50+ active
27
matters, of which require 2-3 dispositive motions until mid-September. As such, Counsel
28
became behind on her caseload from her unanticipated medical leave and needs additional time

1
to properly respond to Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment. Counsel for Defendant
2
apologizes for the belated nature of this request, but did not anticipate seeking an additional
3
extension due her ongoing medical condition. Defendant makes this request in good faith with
4
no intention to unduly delay the proceedings. Defendant will diligently meet the new deadline
5
without any further extensions. The parties further stipulate that the Court’s Scheduling Order
6
shall be modified accordingly.
