RE: Russ v. Commissioner SSA
20-CV-06389 (LGS) (RWL)
Your Honor:
This office represents Plaintiff in the above-referenced Social Security appeal.
Pursuant to Your Honor’s supplemental order dated 12/11/20, Plaintiff’s motion for judgment on
the pleadings was due to be filed on June 2. Yesterday, June 2, we were just informed that no
settlement has been reached and that Defendant intends to proceed with its defense of the
Commissioner’s action.
Due to a number of deadlines based on widespread delays in filing of Administrative records,
Plaintiff now respectfully requests, nunc pro tunc, an additional 30 days within which to file her
motion for judgment on the pleadings. We have been unable to reach Defendant at this time to
ask for consent to this extension of time.
Should your Honor allow the extension, Plaintiff’s motion would then be due on Monday, July 5.
Defendant’s cross-motion would be due on Friday, September 3. Plaintiff’s reply, if any, would
be due by Friday, September 24.
No previous request for such relief has been made. Thank you for your consideration.
