January 6, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 9 PAPERLESS ORDER granting #8 Unopposed Motion for Extension of Time. Defendants Brad Freese ("Freese") and Seaside Marine Survey, Inc. ("Seaside") seek a 10-day extension of time to respond to the Complaint from January 10, 2022 until January 20, 2022. Counsel was retained on January 3, 2022, and the motion sets forth diligent efforts by Defendants Freese and Seaside to retain counsel prior to that date. Counsel thus represents that prior commitments to other clients prevent counsel from responding to the complaint in this action by the response date. Good cause having been shown, and in light of Plaintiff's consent to the relief requested, the motion is granted. Defendants Freese and Seaside must respond to the complaint on or by January 20, 2022. Signed by Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks on 1/6/2022. (kal)

In support, Bluewater represents that it needs additional time to prepare its motion to dismiss. Motions for extensions of time must set forth good cause supported by specific facts. Generalized references to counsel's preparation do not provide the court with sufficient information to discern whether good cause exists. Nevertheless, since the motion is unopposed, I will grant the requested relief in part. Accordingly, Defendant Bluewater must respond to the complaint on or by January 12, 2022. Signed by Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks on 1/4/2022. (kal)
