No. 07-318 C (Judge Allegra)

Plaintiff's Motion for Enlargement of Time Plaintiff, Hilda M. Griffin, pursuant to RCFC 6.1, moves for an enlargement of seven (7) business days [11 calendar days], up to and including Monday, October 1, 2007, in which to file her Brief in Opposition to Defendant's Motion to Dismiss. No previous enlargement has been requested or entered. Undersigned counsel communicated with Mr. Robert E. Chandler, Defendant's counsel, on September 19, 2007 and Defendant will not file an opposition to this motion. The enlargement is requested because undersigned counsel completed work on a summary judgment motion in an unrelated case pending in Federal District Court on which codefendants had previously requested an enlargement through September 20, 2007, and work on that project limited my availability to complete Ms. Griffin's Opposition Brief. Undersigned counsel was recently admitted to the bar of this Court to represent plaintiff in this matter and completed electronic case filing registration
