KEVIN JOHNSON, Plaintiff(s), v. WILLIAM HILL HOLDINGS LIMITED, et al., Defendant(s).
ORDER
[DOCKET NO. 8]
NANCY J. KOPPE, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Pending before the Court is a stipulation to extend by 60 days the deadline for Defendants to respond to the complaint. Docket No. 8. The request is sought in light of the pending motion to withdraw as Plaintiff's counsel, as well as the fact that defense counsel is newly retained and needs more time to prepare a response to the complaint. Id. at 1-2. Although good cause exists for an extension, sufficient justification has not been provided for a two-month extension. Accordingly, the stipulation is GRANTED in part and DENIED in part. The deadline for Defendants to respond to the complaint is EXTNEDED to February 28, 2023.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
