Defendant.

Plaintiff seeks an extension of time to file objections to the findings and recommendations

18

issued on August 30, 2016, recommending that her motion for summary judgment be denied and

19

the Commissioner’s cross-motion for summary judgment be granted.1 ECF No. 26. Plaintiff

20

contends that an extension is necessary due to a delay in receiving the court’s findings and

21

recommendations, which she claims she did not receive until September 12, 2016.

22

In light of plaintiff’s representation, the court will grant a short extension of time, and

23

permit plaintiff to file any objections to the findings and recommendations on or before

24

September 28, 2016. This extension will give plaintiff 16 days from the date she purportedly

25

received the court’s findings and recommendations, which exceeds the 14-day objection period

26

initially provided.
