**

**

This matter is before the Court upon the Plaintiff’s First
Motion for Extension of Time to File a Notice of Appeal [DE 42].
The Court being adequately advised, this motion is ripe for
consideration.
This Court may extend the time to file a notice of appeal upon
a timely motion of the party seeking relief and if “that party
shows

excusable

neglect

4(a)(5)(A)(i), (ii).

or

good

cause.”

R.

App.

P.

Although her motion is timely, Plaintiff has

made no effort to demonstrate excusable neglect, good cause or,
indeed, to offer any reason for her request for an extension of
time to file her notice of appeal.

It follows that this Court may

not grant her the relief she seeks.
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff’s First Motion for

1

Extension of Time to File a Notice of Appeal [DE 42] is DENIED.
This the 15th day of September, 2011.
