1

Plaintiff Peggy Thornton (“Plaintiff”) and Defendant Apartment Management Consultants,

2

LLC (“Defendant” or “AMC”) (collectively, the “Parties”), by and through their undersigned

3

counsel, for good cause shown, hereby jointly move and agree to extend AMC’s deadline to file its

4

response to Plaintiff’s Complaint [ECF No. 1] from January 18, 2023, to February 21, 2023 for the

5

following reasons:

6

1.

Plaintiff filed the Complaint on June 14, 2021 [ECF No. 1].

7

2.

AMC’s response to the Complaint was originally due on January 18, 2023.

8

3.

The Parties informally agreed to extend the deadline to respond to February 1, 2023.

9

5.

The Parties jointly move and agree to extend the deadline for AMC to respond to

the Complaint to and including February 21, 2023.

13

6.

This extension request is supported by good cause. Specifically, as AMC’s counsel

14

was just retained, they require sufficient time to evaluate and investigate the allegations in the

15

Complaint. Additionally, AMC’s lead counsel has a trial beginning on February 8, 2023, which

16

will require substantial time.

17
18

7.

This extension request is sought in good faith and is not made for the purpose of

delay.
