STIPULATION TO EXTEND BRIEFING SCHEDULE
BARBARA A. McAULIFFE, Magistrate Judge.
Plaintiff Rosie Gilmour ("Plaintiff") and defendant Carolyn Colvin, Acting Commissioner of Social Security ("Defendant"), through their undersigned counsel of record, hereby stipulate, subject to the approval of the Court, to extend the time for Plaintiff to file Plaintiff's Opening Brief to January 28, 2014; and that Defendant shall have until February 27, 2014, to file his opposition, if any is forthcoming. Any reply by plaintiff will be due March 6, 2014.
An extension of time for plaintiff is needed in order to properly address the issues within the administrative record in this matter to avoid a confluence of due dates in the midst of the holiday season as a result of the lapse in appropriations. Counsel sincerely apologizes to the court for any inconvenience this may have had upon it or its staff.
ORDER
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff may have an extension of time, to and including January 28, 2014, in which to file Plaintiff's Opening Brief; Defendant may have an extension of time to February 27, 2014 to consider the contentions raised in Plaintiff's Opening Brief, and file any opposition if necessary. Any reply by plaintiff will be due March 6, 2014.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
