Case No. 2:11-cv-01155-PMP-GWF
ORDER

This matter comes before the Court on Defendants Freddie Mac and The Copper Castle

15

Law Firm’s Ex-Parte Motion to Extend the Deadline for All Defendants to Answer Plaintiff’s

16

Complaint (#46), filed on March 6, 2012, and Defendants JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A.’s Joinder

17

to Defendant Copper Castle’s Motion to Extend the Deadline for all Defendants to Answer

18

Plaintiffs’ Complaint (#47), filed on March 6, 2012.

19

On January 24, 2012, the Court stayed this case pending decision on Defendants’ Motions

20

to Dismiss (#17, #18). On February 8, 2012, the Court denied Defendants’ Motions to Dismiss

21

(#17, #18). (See #45.) Thereafter, on March 6, 2012, Aaron Waite, Esq. on behalf of Freddie Mac

22

and The Copper Castle Law Firm filed an Ex-Parte Motion to Extend the Deadline for All

23

Defendants to Answer the Complaint (#46), requesting an additional 30 days or until April 7, 2012

24

to file an answer. Defendant JP Morgan Chase, as successor by merger to Defendants Chase Home

25

Finance LLC and Chase Manhattan Corporation, filed a Joinder (#47) to Mr. Waite’s Motion. On

26

March 7, 2012, a Substitution of Attorneys was filed indicating that Josh Cole Aiken, Esq. and

27

Mark J. Brown, Esq. were substituting as counsel for the Copper Castle Law Firm. Mr. Aicken and

28

Mr. Brown also filed a Stipulation and Order for Extension of Time to Answer Complaint (#48),

1

stipulating to an extension until March 12, 2012 for Defendant Copper Castle Law Firm to answer

2

the complaint. On March 7, 2012, the Court granted the Stipulation to Extend (#48). In this instant

3

motion, Defendants represent that Plaintiffs do not oppose allowing an additional 30 days to

4

respond to the complaint. The Court will therefore grant Defendants Freddie Mac, Chase Home

5

Finance, LLC, and Chase Manhattan Mortgage Corp. until Friday, April 6, 2012 to file an answer

6

to the Plaintiff’s Complaint. Accordingly,

7

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Ex-Parte Motion to Extend the Deadline for All

8

Defendants to Answer Plaintiff’s Complaint (#46) is granted. Defendants Freddie Mac, Chase

9

Home Finance, LLC, and Chase Manhattan Mortgage Corp. shall have until Friday, April 6, 2012.

10
11

to file an answer to Plaintiff’s complaint.
DATED this 7th day of March, 2012.
