ORDER RE STIPULATION TO CONTINUE BRIEFING SCHEDULE AND HEARING ON DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
This is an ERISA action challenging a denial of disability benefits. Due to plaintiff counsel's health and personal reasons, the parties have stipulated to extend the briefing schedule and hearing date on defendant's motion for summary judgment by one week. A previous extension of one week was granted for the same reasons. Plaintiff's counsel has submitted a sworn declaration explaining why the second extension is needed. For good cause shown, the extension is GRANTED. Plaintiff's opposition to defendant's motion for summary judgment must be filed by FEBRUARY 11, 2010. Defendant's reply must be filed by FEBRUARY 18, 2010. The hearing on defendant's motion for summary judgment will be held on MARCH 4, 2010.
