) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) )
No. 07-754C (Judge Firestone)
DEFENDANT'S UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR AN ENLARGEMENT OF TIME
Pursuant to Rules 6(b) and 6.1 of the Rules of the United States Court of Federal Claims ("RCFC"), defendant, the United States, respectfully requests a 45-day enlargement of time, to and including February 14, 2008, within which to file a response to the complaint filed by plaintiff, Ravens Group, Inc. Our response is currently due on December 31, 2007. Plaintiff's counsel does not oppose our request. This is our first request for an enlargement of time for this purpose. Due to the complexity of the issues involved in the case and the volume of material, the additional time requested is necessary for agency counsel to collect documents and for defendant's counsel to review the case file, coordinate with agency counsel, and to prepare an appropriate response to the complaint. Furthermore, defendant's counsel is scheduled to be on holiday leave from December 24, 2007 through January 3, 2008. For the foregoing reasons, we respectfully request that the Court grant our unopposed motion to enlarge the time within which to respond to the complaint, by 45 days, to and including February14, 2007.
