PLAINTIFF TO SEEK ATTORNEY FEES

17

On November 5, 2019, the parties stipulated for Plaintiff to have an extension of time to file a

18

motion for attorney feeds under the Equal Access to Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2412(d). (Doc. 29)

Plaintiff reports an extension of time is necessary because they “are continuing to negotiate an agreed

20

amount.” (Id. at 2) Therefore, the parties request the Court extent the deadline by fourteen days, to

21

November 19, 2019. (Id.) Based upon the stipulation of the parties and good cause appearing, the

22

Court ORDERS:

23

1.

The request for an extension of time is GRANTED nunc pro tunc; and

24

2.

Plaintiff SHALL file a motion for attorney fees no later than November 19, 2019.
