ORDER
Request for Postponement - #14

This matter comes before the Court on Plaintiff’s Request for Postponement (#14), filed on
October 6, 2014.

Plaintiff requests that the Court postpone the filing of the Joint Status Report, as Plaintiff has

17

not yet found an attorney. This Court ordered the parties to submit the Report by October 6, 2014.

18

(#11). Plaintiff has not yet complied, and asks for more time. Additionally, Plaintiff has not responded

19

to the pending Motion to Dismiss (#5). Plaintiff’s response was also due on October 6th. Plaintiff

makes no mention of the Motion to Dismiss in his Request for Postponement. Nevertheless, the Court

21

will grant the request for both deadlines, as Plaintiff states that he has struggled to find counsel to

22

represent him. Plaintiff has demonstrated good cause for the requested extension. Plaintiff must file

23

both documents in accordance with this extension, whether or not he retains an attorney. Accordingly,
