No. 1:15 CV 169 JMB

ORDER
Before the Court is a request by Plaintiff for an extension of time to file a brief in support
of his complaint, which this Court will construe as a motion for additional time. (ECF No. 15)
In the motion, Plaintiff requests thirty (30) additional days in which to file a brief in support of
his complaint. Plaintiff’s original deadline for filing a brief was December 31, 2015.
The Court will deny Plaintiff’s motion as moot, because the Court has already granted
Plaintiff an additional sixty (60) days in which to file his brief. (See ECF No. 14) Because the
Court has already granted Plaintiff sixty (60) days to file his brief, his request for thirty (30) days
is not necessary. The Court recognizes that Plaintiff is now proceeding pro se, and will therefore
give Plaintiff until March 7, 2016 to file his brief.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff’s request for a thirty (30) day extension in
which to file a brief in support of his complaint is denied, because the Court has already granted
Plaintiff an additional sixty (60) days in which to file his brief.
