STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED]
ORDER EXTENDING THE DEADLINE
FOR PLAINTIFF TO FILE MOTION FOR
ATTORNEY'S FEES AND BILL OF
COSTS
Plaintiff Gonzales & Gonzales Bonds and Insurance Agency, Inc. ("G&G" or "Plaintiff") and Defendant United States Department of Homeland Security ("DHS"), by and through their respective counsel, make the following representations and stipulate and agree as follows:
G&G and DHS are continuing to engage in meet and confer efforts regarding G&G's motion for attorney's fees and bill of costs based on the Court's Order of December 21, 2012, which ruled upon the parties' motions for summary judgment in this Freedom of Information Act case.
The current filing deadline for the motion and bill of costs is March 12, 2013. The parties seek to extend this deadline by one week, to March 19, 2013, to allow for additional time to meet and confer. The parties respectfully request that the Court approve this requested extension.
This is the third requested extension of the original January 4, 2013 deadline. DHS' deadline for filing opposition to G&G's motion for attorney's fees and bill of costs would continue to be 30 days from the filing of G&G's motion and bill of costs.
The requested extension would not affect the schedule for the case.
Nothing herein shall constitute a waiver of DHS' right to oppose or object to G&G's motion for attorney's fees and bill of costs.
Respectfully submitted,
ROXBOROUGH, POMERANCE, NYE & ADREANI, LLP
