Case No. 2:18-cv-00219-JCM-PAL
STIPULATION FOR EXTENSION OF
TIME TO FILE ANSWER
(Second Request)

17

Pursuant to Local Rule 6-1, the parties hereby request a 60-day extension of time for

18

Defendants United States of America and Dennis Lao to file an answer or otherwise respond to

19

Plaintiff’s Complaint (ECF No. 1). Based on the date of service of the summons and complaint

20

on the United States, the United States’ answer or other response was due by July 3, 2018. On

21

July 6, 2018, the Court granted an unopposed motion to extend the United States’ answer to

22

August 2, 2018. ECF #5.

23

The parties respectfully request an additional 60 days to October 1, 2018, for the United

24

States and Dennis Lao to answer the complaint. Lao, a former federal employee, is seeking

25

representation from the Department of Justice in this matter, a process that takes several weeks.

26

Further, the United States is still working to ascertain the facts necessary to answer the

27

Complaint. This stipulation is not sought for purposes of delay or any other improper purposes.

28

It is the second stipulation for an extension of time to file a response.
