Opinion
Case No. 5:11-cv-170-Oc-37TBS.
August 19, 2011
ORDER
Pending before the Court is the Unopposed Motion For Extension of Time (Doc. 17) in which Plaintiff seeks an additional thirty (30) days within which to conduct the parties case management conference. Plaintiff represents that Defendant Mufeed Zaqzouq, who is proceeding pro se, has no objection to the instant motion.
The Clerk entered default against the other named defendant, Moize Nedin LLC d/b/a Murphy's Oyster Bar, on August 19, 2011.
Pursuant to Local Rule 3.05(c)(2)(B), counsel and any unrepresented party shall meet within 60 days after service of the complaint for the purpose of preparing and filing a Case Management Report, and the Report shall be filed within 14 days after the meeting. Here, Defendant Mufeed Zaqzouq was served on May 5, 2011, and thus, the deadline for the parties to conduct the case management conference has passed.
Plaintiff states that the current deadline for conducting the case management conference is August 22, 2011. However, by the Court's calculation, 60 days after May 5, 2011 was July 4, 2011.
Upon due consideration, the Unopposed Motion For Extension of Time (Doc. 17) is GRANTED to the extent that the parties promptly shall conduct their case management conference and Plaintiff shall file the parties' Case Management Report on or before September 16, 2011.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DONE AND ORDERED in Ocala, Florida.
