IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF FEDERAL CLAIMS No. 07-252 T (Judge Marian Blank Horn) __________ BERNARD F. AND CYNTHIA G. MANKO, Plaintiffs v. UNITED STATES, Defendant
__________ MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME _________
The defendant, pursuant to RCFC 6(b), respectfully moves this Court for an enlargement of 3 days, from November 27, 2007, to and including November 30, 2007, of the deadline for the defendant to respond to plaintiffs' first set of discovery requests. No prior enlargement of this deadline has been requested. Plaintiffs' counsel has indicated that plaintiffs have no opposition to defendant's motion. As good cause therefore, defendant's counsel is still awaiting some information from the IRS that is needed to complete the defendant's responses to plaintiffs' discovery requests. The IRS has advised defendant's counsel that he will receive that information no later than November 28, 2007. Defendant will require some time after that date to incorporate the information from the IRS into the discovery responses. The brief enlargement sought by this 1
