Pugh-Ouza v. Springhill Suites et al

Filing 159

ORDER: Defendants moved for summary judgment on May 12, 2021. According to the briefing schedule proposed by the parties, Plaintiffs opposition was to be due June 28, 2021. The Court subsequently granted two extensions of that deadline due to a s erious medical issue on the part of Plaintiffs counsel. See Dkts. 154, 158. The most recent deadline for the opposition was one week ago (August 20, 2021), and nothing has been filed. Although the Court expects litigants to meet deadlines and, whe re necessary, to file timely requests for extensions, the Court is sympathetic to Plaintiffs counsels condition. Accordingly, the Court sua sponte extends the deadline for Plaintiff to oppose the summary judgment motion to September 17, 2021. The d eadline for Defendants reply is extended to October 29, 2021. If Plaintiffs counsel is not in a position to meet the deadline, or to represent Plaintiff at this time, she shall notify the Court no later than September 17, 2021. SO ORDERED.

Defendants.
RONNIE ABRAMS, United States District Judge:
Defendants moved for summary judgment on May 12, 2021. According to the briefing
schedule proposed by the parties, Plaintiff’s opposition was to be due June 28, 2021. The Court
subsequently granted two extensions of that deadline due to a serious medical issue on the part of
Plaintiff’s counsel. See Dkts. 154, 158. The most recent deadline for the opposition was one
week ago (August 20, 2021), and nothing has been filed. Although the Court expects litigants to
meet deadlines and, where necessary, to file timely requests for extensions, the Court is
sympathetic to Plaintiff’s counsel’s condition. Accordingly, the Court sua sponte extends the
deadline for Plaintiff to oppose the summary judgment motion to September 17, 2021. The
deadline for Defendants’ reply is extended to October 29, 2021.
If Plaintiff’s counsel is not in a position to meet the deadline, or to represent Plaintiff at
this time, she shall notify the Court no later than September 17, 2021.
SO ORDERED.
