Defendant’s counsel consented on the telephone to this extension, and then asked to be sent the
written motion before it was filed for final approval, which the undersigned did at 3:54 PM PST.
However, Defendant’s counsel has not responded yet, so the undersigned is filing this Motion
now to maximize the chance of the Court seeing it and ruling on it before midnight.
