This is an immigration case in which plaintiff has challenged the delay in the execution of his I-824 application and the processing of his family's immigrant visa applications by the United States Department of State and the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services. The parties have previously stipulated to two extensions of time, until April 13, 2009, for the government to file its answer to the complaint. At the time of the filing of the last extension request, consular processing had begun overseas. This consular processing has progressed, but at the time of this filing is not yet complete. Because of the likelihood that this matter will shortly be resolved on the administrative level, the parties stipulate to a third extension of time, until August 15, 2009, for the filing of the government's answer.

Dated: April 8, 2009
