Plaintiffs, Case No. 1 :0$-CV-125-ODE

MARK P. BECKER, in his official capacity as Georgia State University President, et al., Defendants .

UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR A ONE DAY EXTENSION OF TIME The above-named Defendants hereby move for a one (1) day extension of
time, from April 5 to April 6, to respond to Plaintiffs' Motion for Summary

Judgment ("Motion") . This extension is sought for a limited purpose-to permit
the timely filing of three exhibits (deposition transcripts) cited in Defendants

timely filed opposition to Plaintiffs' Motion . As shown below, Defendants
attempted to file these exhibits on April 5, but due to technical difficulty, were unable to do so . As good cause, Defendants show the following . On Monday, April 5, 2010, Defendants timely filed their Brief in Opposition

to Plaintiffs' Motion for Summary Judgment, their Response to Plaintiffs' Local
Rule 56 .1 Statement of Facts, their Supplemental Statement of Facts, and five

declarations, including two exhibits to those declarations . Also on Monday, April
5, Defendants attempted to file three deposition transcripts, namely-the

deposition of Ms . Nancy Seamans ; the deposition of Ms . Laura Burtle ; and the
January 15, 20 10 expert deposition of Ms . Debra Mariniello . The Seamans and Burtle deposition had been previously filed with the court as Dkt . No. 174 and Dkt .

No . 169, respectively.
Defendants made a good faith effort to file all three exhibits in a single document on the evening of April 5 . However, Defendants' attempt to do so

failed, likely because of the large file sizes . Defendants proceeded to file the exhibits (deposition transcr ipts) separately . The Mariniello deposition and the Bottle depositions were filed by 12 :30 a.m . on April 6 . (The Burtle deposition was filed in two parts .) The Seamans deposition (Dkt . No . 174) was inadvertently
omitted . Defendants are filing the Seamans deposition transcript concurrently with this Motion .

Today, April 6, 2010, Defendants spoke by telephone to counsel for Plaintiffs and disclosed the filing problems encountered yesterday evening . Defendants informed Plaintiffs of their intent to file this motion . Plaintiffs stated that they would not oppose this motion for a one day extension based on
timeliness, but reserved all other rights, including the right to object on other

grounds . Accordingly, Defendants submit that good cause exists and that this motion for a one day extension of time should be granted .
