STIPULATION AND ORDER FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE REPLY IN SUPPORT OF MOTION FOR JUDGMENT ON THE PLEADINGS
(FIRST REQUEST)
SFR Investments Pool 1, LLC, and NewRez LLC d/b/a Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing, agree Shellpoint shall have an additional five (5) days, up to and including August 31, 2022, to file its reply in support of its motion for judgment on the pleadings on SFR's second cause of action for cancellation of written instrument pursuant to NRS 106.240, which is currently due on August 26, 2022. The motion was filed on August 4, 2022, and SFR's response was filed on August 19, 2022.
The extension is requested because Shellpoint's counsel is replying in support of two motions for judgment on the pleadings, whilst also briefing two motions for protective orders and opposing two motions to amend the complaint, in this matter and another similar matter. Additionally, counsel for Shellpoint has endured staff shortages in recent weeks due to unforeseeable circumstances, including but not limited to COVID-19. The deadlines for Shellpoint's oppositions and replies have fallen in short succession, and Shellpoint requires additional time to reply in support of both pending motions for judgment on the pleadings. Good cause therefore exists to extend Shellpoint's reply deadline. This is the parties' first request for an extension of this deadline and is not intended to cause any delay or prejudice to any party.
ORDER
IT IS SO ORDERED.
