No. 00-644 (Judge Firestone)

JOINT MOTION FOR AN ENLARGEMENT OF TIME TO FILE JOINT STATUS REPORT

Pursuant to Rule 6.1 of the Rules of the Court of Federal Claims, the parties respectfully submit this joint motion for an enlargement of time of ten business days, up to and including August 13, 2008, within which to file their next joint status report. In the last joint status report, filed June 17, the parties explained their progress towards accomplishing the tasks set out in the Court's May 21 Order. Although the parties have made additional progress since that time, the parties have not been able to complete the tasks set out in this Court's Order due to absences and other case commitments. The parties therefore request an extension in to allow time to work towards completing these tasks and to determine any remaining issues for the Court.
