June 27, 2025 Opinion or Order Filing 18 PAPERLESS ORDER granting in part #17 Motion for Extension of Time. Defendant seeks to extend the deadline to respond to Plaintiff's Complaint by 30 days. In support, Defendant states that Plaintiff intends to file an Amended Complaint, but has not yet done so, despite the approaching response deadline of July 2. Motions for Extension of Time must demonstrate good cause supported by specific facts. The facts supplied are speculative, and do not warrant the lengthy extension requested. However, in the interest of efficiency, and because the Motion is unopposed, I will afford Defendant a brief delay to account for Plaintiff's intended amendment. Defendant shall respond to Plaintiff's Complaint on or by July 16, 2025. Signed by Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks on 6/27/2025. (sm01)
