SCOTT SCHUTZA, Plaintiff, v. THE CONTAINER STORE, INC., Defendant.
ORDER GRANTING JOINT MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME [ECF No. 6]
Hon. Janis L. Sammartino United States District Judge
Presently before the Court is a Joint Motion for Extension of Time wherein the Parties request that the Court extend the deadline for Defendant to respond to the Complaint to January 7, 2022. (ECF No. 6.) This is the Parties' second request for an extension of the response deadline (ECF No. 4), and the Court previously granted Defendant a one-month extension of the deadline, from November 23, 2021, to December 23, 2021 (ECF No. 5). However, in their joint motion, the Parties again represent that they “are currently engaged in settlement negotiations and believe that extending the date for Defendant to respond to the Complaint will aid in those efforts.” (ECF No. 6 at 2.)
For good cause shown, the Court hereby GRANTS the Parties' joint motion (ECF No. 6). Accordingly, Defendant shall have until January 7, 2022, to answer or otherwise respond to the Complaint.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
