| Set/Reset Deadlines: Defendant to answer or otherwise respond to Plaintiff's complaint on or before 11/14/2022. (dot) |
MINUTE ORDER: The Court is in receipt of Defendant's #7 Motion for Extension of Time. Defendant requests an extension of time, from October 17, 2022 to December 2, 2022, to answer or otherwise respond to Plaintiff's complaint. In support thereof, Defendant relies on a long list of competing deadlines, none of which is a trial. Although Plaintiff consents to a 21-day extension, it opposes an extension of time to December. As Plaintiff rightly notes, Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 6(b) permits the Court to grant an opposed extension request only upon a showing of good cause. A heavy caseload is usually insufficient to establish good cause. See Joseph v. Hess Oil Virgin Islands Corp., 651 F.3d 348, 356 (3d Cir. 2011) (collecting cases). Although extensions of time are routinely granted in FOIA cases such as this, the Court is hesitant to grant an opposed request beyond 21 days. As such, the Court GRANTS IN PART AND DENIES IN PART Defendant's #7 Motion for Extension of Time and directs Defendant to answer or otherwise respond to Plaintiff's complaint on or before November 14, 2022. Signed by Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly on October 6, 2022. (lcckk1)
