Case No. 20-2193-KHV-GEB

ORDER
This matter is before the Court on Defendants’ motion for a two-week extension of
the time to Answer Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint (ECF No. 46), and its later Motion to
file its Answer instanter (ECF No. 47). Defendants’ motion for extension was filed May
20, 2021, making Plaintiff’s response deadline June 3, 2021. No response was filed by June
3, and as such the Court may grant the motion (ECF No. 46) as uncontested without further
notice pursuant to D. Kan. Rule 7.4(b). Additionally, in its discretion, the Court finds good
cause for the extension.
Because the Court grants Defendants’ request for extension herein, it follows that
Defendants are permitted to file their Answer. Therefore, Defendants’ motion to file its
Answer instanter (ECF No. 47) is also granted without further briefing.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Defendants’ motion for a two-week
extension of the time to Answer Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint (ECF No. 46) is
GRANTED, and Defendants’ Motion to file its Answer instanter (ECF No. 47) is likewise

GRANTED. Defendants shall file its Answer using the Court’s ECF system no later than
June 11, 2021.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated at Wichita, Kansas this 4th day of June, 2021.
