ORAL ORDER: Having reviewed Defendant's Motion for an Extension of Time to Answer or Otherwise Respond to the Complaint (D.I. #6 ) (the Motion), the Motion is DENIED as Defendant has not shown good cause for the Court to extend the time for Defendant to answer beyond the time provided by Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 81(c)(2). See Fed. R. Civ. P. 6(b)(1)(A) ("When an act may or must be done within a specified time, the court may, for good cause, extend the time... if the court acts, or if a request is made, before the original time... expires"). Defendant asserts that it was served with a copy of the Complaint on May 11, 2026, D.I. 1 ¶ 2; D.I. 1-3 ¶ 2; D.I. 6 ¶ 3; see also D.I. 1-2 (Sheriff's Return indicating service of the Summons and Complaint on May 11), and that it retained counsel on May 15, D.I. 6 ¶¶ 4, 13, but has not shown any subsequent diligence or otherwise explained its delay in waiting to file its Motion to Extend Deadline to Answer or Otherwise Respond to the Complaint (D.I. 1-3) until the day of its original June 1 deadline to serve an answer in the Superior Court of Delaware, its failure to meet that original answer deadline, or its delay in waiting another week after that original answer deadline to remove the case to this Court and de facto receive a fourteen-day extension of time to answer the Complaint without the Superior Court of Delaware or this Court ordering such an extension. Ordered by Judge Colm F. Connolly on 6/12/2026. (mws)
