December 1, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 30 TEXT ORDER This Court is in receipt of a letter dated November 25, 2020 from Raymond M. Baldino, counsel for Plaintiff (ECF No. #28 ). In this letter, Mr. Baldino requested an automatic extension of the motion return date for Defendant Freedom Mortgage Corporations Motion to Transfer from December 7, 2020 to the next return date, December 21, 2020. This Court is in receipt of Defendant Freedom Mortgage Corporations recently filed Reply Brief in Support of its Motion to Transfer Action (ECF No. #29 ).

Accordingly, this Court grants Plaintiffs request for an extension of the motion date from December 7, 2020 to December 21, 2020 nunc pro tunc. Moving forward, this Court urges that requests for an extension should be timely made. Plaintiffs Opposition Papers are now due December 7, 2020 and Defendant Freedom Mortgage Corporation shall file its Amended Reply Papers by December 14, 2020. So Ordered by Judge Noel L.
