April 3, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 22 MINUTE ORDER: This matter is before the Court upon consideration of Plaintiffs' Objection #21 which was filed beyond the time allowed by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and this Court's Order 18 . Specifically, Plaintiffs had 14 days to file any objection to the Magistrate Judge's Recommendation; therefore, any objection was due by March 26, 2019. Plaintiffs filed a motion for extension of time, but that motion was denied as to Plaintiff Makeen Investment Group, LLC, and granted as to Plaintiff Akeem Makeen, but only until March 29, 2019. Plaintiffs' Objection filed on April 2, 2019, comes too late. It is therefore ORDERED that the Plaintiffs Objection is hereby STRICKEN. SO ORDERED by Judge Raymond P. Moore on 4/3/2019.

March 26, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 18 ORDER: This matter is before the Court on Plaintiffs' motion for a seven (7) day extension of time to file objections to the Recommendation. The motion asserts, cursorily, that both plaintiffs have been sick for "long periods of time." It is unclear to the Court how plaintiff Makeen Investment Group, LLC, an entity, could possibly be sick. Accordingly, the motion is denied as to plaintiff Makeen Investment Group, LLC. As for plaintiff Akeem Makeen, notwithstanding the cursory assertion of illness, the Court will grant him an extension of time in this instance, but only until Friday, March 29, 2019. The parties are on notice that cursory assertions are insufficient to support relief. SO ORDERED by Judge Raymond P. Moore on 3/26/2019. (Text Only Entry ) (rmsec )
