UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
(FIRST REQUEST)
Defendant, Kilolo Kijakazi, Acting Commissioner of Social Security (Defendant) respectfully requests that the Court extend the time for Defendant to respond to Plaintiff's Motion for Reversal and/or Remand (Dkt. No. 16, filed on March 7, 2023), currently due on April 6, 2023, by 32 days, through and including May 8, 2023. Defendant further requests that all subsequent deadlines be extended accordingly.
This is Defendant's first request for an extension of time to file a response. Good cause exists for this extension. Defendant respectfully requests this additional time because counsel is currently in the process of determining if a settlement agreement is possible. If the case cannot be settled, then Defendant's counsel will proceed with filing Defendant's response to Plaintiff's Motion for Reversal and/or Remand. This request is made in good faith and with no intention to unduly delay the proceedings.
On April 6, 2023, counsel for Defendant conferred with Plaintiff's counsel, who has no opposition to this motion.
It is therefore requested that Defendant be granted an extension of time to respond to Plaintiff's Motion for Reversal and/or Remand, through and including May 8, 2023.
IT IS SO ORDERED:
