IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS FORT WORTH DIVISION AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC., Plaintiff, vs. TRAVELPORT LIMITED, et al., Defendants. ) ) ) ) ) Case No. 4:11-cv-00244-Y ) (ODD DOCKET LAW CLERK) ) ) ) ) ) UNOPPOSED MOTION TO EXTEND PLAINTIFF’S TIME TO RESPOND TO DEFENDANTS’ MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION AND LEAVE TO FILE AN ADDITIONAL COUNTERCLAIM Plaintiff American Airlines, Inc. (“American”) files this unopposed motion to briefly extend its deadline to respond to Defendants Travelport Limited and Travelport, LP (collectively, “Travelport”) Motion for Reconsideration and Leave to File an Additional Counterclaim (the “Motion”) (Dkt. 433) from February 26, 2013 until March 8, 2013. Travelport does not oppose the requested relief. American seeks this brief extension because Travelport has moved the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”) in the case of In re AMR Corp., et al., Case No. 11-15463(SHL), to modify the automatic stay to allow Travelport to amend its counterclaims against American in this action. The Bankruptcy Court is hearing argument on this motion on February 26, 2013, the same day as American’s current deadline to respond to the Motion. If the Bankruptcy Court denies Travelport’s motion to lift the stay, it could obviate the need for the parties to brief or the Court to consider some of the issues US_ACTIVE:\44203905\2\14013.0135 raised in Travelport’s Motion. Accordingly, American requests that Court extend American’s deadline to respond to Travelport’s Motion from February 26, 2013 until March 8, 2013.
