COMPLAINT
2:18-cv-00862-MMD-NJK

1

This second extension is sought because Defendant recently retained new litigation counsel

2

at the law firm Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP, who reasonably request additional time to

3

evaluate Defendant’s claims and defenses and to prepare Defendant’s response to the Complaint.

4

Defendant also seeks this second extension in order to finalize its retention of local counsel in this

5

matter. Defendant has requested only one prior extension from the Court, and this request is made

6

in the interests of justice and not for the purposes of delay.
