Plaintiff Margaret Louise Simpson (Plaintiff) and Defendant Carolyn W. Colvin, Acting

2

Commissioner of Social Security (Defendant), stipulate, with the approval of this Court, to an

3

extension of time to file Defendant’s Notice Of Voluntary Remand Of The Case or Cross-Motion To

4

Affirm by thirty days from the current deadline of November17, 2016 to December 19, 2016, with all

5
6

other dates in this Court’s Order Concerning Review Of Social Security Cases extended accordingly.
This is Defendant’s second request for an extension.

7
Good cause exists to grant Defendant’s request for extension. Defendant respectfully requests

11

additional time to adequately review the record, assess and evaluate Plaintiff’s arguments. Good cause
also exists because counsel for Defendant (Counsel) is currently on scheduled leave from November
10, 2016 through November 14, 2016. Counsel needs additional time to complete the agency review’s

12

process for new attorneys, which requires additional levels of review. Consequently, Defendant

13

respectfully requests additional time to properly respond to the issues Plaintiff raised in her Motion.
