Re:
Telebrands Corp. v. Adward runbaifan, et al.
Civil Case No. 23-cv-1063
Fourth Request for Extension of Time to File Application for an Order to
Show Cause for Default Judgment
Dear Judge Woods,
We represent Plaintiff Telebrands Corp. (“Plaintiff”), in the above-referenced matter (the
“Action”). On September 21, 2023, the Court entered an Order directing Plaintiff to file any application
for an order to show cause for default judgment (“DJ OSC”) by no later than October 15, 2023. On
October 2, 2023, Plaintiff filed its first request for an extension of time to file its DJ OSC (Dkt. 43),
which the Court granted and extended Plaintiff’s deadline to file its DJ OSC until November 17, 2023.
(Dkt. 44). On November 13, 2023, Plaintiff filed its second request for an extension of time to file its DJ
OSC (Dkt. 48), which the Court granted and extended Plaintiff’s deadline to file its DJ OSC until January
31, 2024. (Dkt. 49). On January 26, 2024, Plaintiff filed its third request for an extension of time to file
its DJ OSC (Dkt. 50), which the Court granted and extended Plaintiff’s deadline to file its DJ OSC until
March 29, 2024 (Dkt. 51). For the reasons set forth herein, Plaintiff respectfully requests a fourth
extension of time, until April 26, 2024, to file its DJ OSC. In accordance with Your Honor’s Individual
Rules of Practice, Plaintiff respectfully submits the following:
1. Original Deadline: March 29, 2024
2. The number of previous requests for extension: Three, this is the fourth request for an
extension of time to file Plaintiff’s DJ OSC.
3. The reason for the current request: Plaintiff respectfully requests an extension of time so that
it can continue engaging in the settlement discussions it is having with a handful of the Defendants
remaining in the Action. Moreover, Plaintiff is in the process of attempting to serve some of the
remaining Defendants via the Hague Convention, and none of the services have been completed
at this time.
4. Whether the adversary consents: All of the Defendants remaining in this action are currently
in default, thus Plaintiff did not seek their consent.

5. Proposed alternative dates: Based on Plaintiff’s counsel’s experience in similar cases, Plaintiff
does not anticipate receiving the results of the attempted Hague service for several months at best.
Accordingly, at this time, Plaintiff respectfully proposes filing its DJ OSC against only those
Defendants for whom the Hague Convention does not apply by no later than April 26, 2024 to
allow any ongoing settlement discussions to conclude. Plaintiff further respectfully proposes
providing the Court with an update regarding the Hague service at the time it files the DJ OSC.
We thank the Court for its time and attention to this matter.
Respectfully submitted,
EPSTEIN DRANGEL LLP
