BRENDA WEKSLER UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Plaintiff, STOP FRANCHISING SPE LLC (“Plaintiff') and Defendant, MICHAEL MENDOZA, INC. (“Defendant”) (collectively, the “Parties”), by and through their undersigned counsel of record, for good cause shown, hereby stipulate and agree to extend Defendant's deadline to file its response to Plaintiffs Complaint [ECF No. 1] (the “Complaint”) from Wednesday, October 5; 2022, to Wednesday, October 12, 2022, for the following reasons:
1. Plaintiff filed their Complaint against Defendant Michael Mendoza, Inc. [ECF No. 1] on September 12, 2022.
2. On September 12, 2022, Plaintiffs counsel emailed a courtesy copy of the Complaint to Defendant's counsel.
3. Plaintiff filed their Renewed Emergency Motion for Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction [ECF No. 10] (the “TRO”) on September 13, 2022.
4. Plaintiff served Defendant with the TRO and the Complaint on September 14, 2022.
5. Since then, Defendant's counsel spent a significant amount of time drafting its opposition to the TRO. Additionally, Defendant's counsel was out of the office in observance of the Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashanah and will be out of the office in observance of Yom Kippur on October 5, 2022. The response to the Complaint is currently due on October 5, 2022.
6. Defendant needs additional time to adequately prepare its response to Plaintiffs Complaint.
7. The parties hereby stipulate that the deadline for Defendant's responsive pleading shall be extended by one week from October 5, 2022 until October 12, 2022.
8. This is the first stipulation for extension of time to file Defendant's responsive pleading.
THEREFORE, the Parties respectfully request an extension for Defendant to file its response to Plaintiffs Complaint [ECF No. 1] from October 5, 2022 to and including October 12, 2022. This stipulated extension is for good cause and not for improper delay.
