DEFENDANT'S CONSENT MOTION FOR LEAVE OUT OF TIME TO FILE THE JOINT STATUS REPORT Pursuant to the Rules of this Court, defendant, the United States, respectfully requests that the Court grant the parties leave to file the joint status report one day out of time. The joint status report was originally due on Wednesday, December 13, 2006 and the parties moved for an extension of time to file the report until Monday, December 18, 2006, due to the travel schedule of counsel of record for the plaintiff. This Court granted that motion. Counsel for the plaintiffs consent to the filing of this motion. Counsel for defendant received plaintiffs' revisions to its December 12, 2006 draft status report on Monday, December 18, 2006. Although counsel for the parties believed they would be able to file the joint status report on that date, they were unable to complete the ultimate form of the filing and obtain the required supervisory review of the joint status report in time to file it on the due date.
