UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE ANSWER AND CERTIFIED ADMINISTRATIVE RECORD (SECOND REQUEST)
BRENDA WEKSLER UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Defendant, Kilolo Kijakazi, Acting Commissioner of Social Security (the “Commissioner”), through her undersigned counsel, hereby requests an extension of time to file her answer and Certified Administrative Record (CAR) in this case, for good cause shown. This is the Commissioner's second motion for an extension. The Commissioner's answer and CAR are currently due to be filed by February 3, 2023.
The Commissioner requests another extension of 30 days in which to file the answer and CAR. Counsel for Defendant advised counsel for Plaintiff of the need for this extension on February 2, 2023. Counsel for Plaintiff confirmed that Plaintiff does not object to this request.
Defendant makes this request in good faith and for good cause. Since the first extension, the CAR was prepared. Defendant's counsel has reviewed the CAR and needs additional time to consult with the client regarding issues in the case.
Accordingly, Defendant respectfully requests an extension of an additional 30 days in which to respond to Plaintiff's complaint. The new due date would be March 6, 2023.
The 30th day is Sunday, March 5, so the due date in Court would be March 6.
IT IS SO ORDERED:
