SHENG-WEN CHENG, Plaintiffs, v. LUKAS CASH, Defendants.
ORDER
JESSE M. FURMAN, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE:
Defendant was required to answer the Second Amended Complaint (“SAC”) by December 11, 2023, see ECF No. 22, but has not done so to date. As a courtesy, and in light of the intervening holidays, Defendant's deadline to answer is hereby EXTENDED, nunc pro tunc, to January 19, 2024. The Court will invite Plaintiff to move for default judgment if Defendant fails to appear and answer the SAC by that deadline.
If Defendant chooses to proceed pro se - i.e., without the assistance of counsel - he may wish to reference the attached documents, including guides and templates for filing an Answer or a responsive motion. Defendant may also contact the Pro Se Law Clinic (which is housed in the Courthouse but run by the New York Legal Assistance Group) by phone at (212) 659-6190.
The Clerk is directed to mail a copy of this Order to Plaintiff at his address on record, and to Defendant at 121 Hidden Road, Andover, MA 01810.
SO ORDERED.
