CHARLES BINGLEY FRYAR, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant.
ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF'S REQUEST FOR AN EXTENSION OF TIME
(DOC. 12)
JENNIFER L. THURSTON, CHIEF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
On December 20, 2021, Plaintiff filed a stipulation of the parties for an extension of thirty days to file a motion for summary judgment. (Doc. 12.) Melissa Newel, Plaintiff's counsel, reports the extension is necessary “due to the number of certified transcripts received from the Commissionedue to holiday travel and multiple briefing deadlines currently scheduled for the same day.” (Id. at 2.) This is the first request for an extension, and it does not appear either party will suffer prejudice from the delay. Accordingly, the Court ORDERS:
1. The request for an extension of time (Doc. 12) is GRANTED; and
2. Plaintiff SHALL file a motion for summary judgment no later than February 2, 2022.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
