Date Filed Document Text
March 22, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 11 PAPERLESS ORDER granting #10 Defendants' Unopposed Motion for Extension of Time. The deadline for Defendants to respond to Plaintiff's Complaint is March 25, 2022. Defendants seek a one-week extension of this deadline, citing that Defendants will render a decision on Plaintiff's Form I-589 Application for Asylum, the subject of this lawsuit, by March 28, 2022, which will render this case moot. (DE #10 at para. 3). Defendants represent that a one-week extension will permit Plaintiff to file a notice of voluntary dismissal or Defendants to file a motion to dismiss once a decision is rendered. (Id. at 4). I find good cause to grant Defendants' Motion. Accordingly, Defendants' deadline to respond to Plaintiff's Complaint is extended to April 1, 2022. Signed by Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks on 3/22/2022.
