No. 07-143 (Judge Firestone)
DEFENDANT'S UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR ENLARGEMENT OF TIME TO FILE JOINT PRELIMINARY STATUS REPORT Pursuant to Rule 6(b)(1) and 6.1 of the Rules of the United States Court of Federal Claims ("RCFC"), defendant, the United States, respectfully requests a two-day enlargement of time, to and including August 1, 2007, to file the Joint Preliminary Status Report in the abovecaptioned case. The Joint Preliminary Status Report is currently due July 30, 2007. Plaintiff's counsel has stated that he does not oppose this motion. Although the parties have conferred at length regarding the contents of the Joint Preliminary Status Report and the issues in this case, and a draft of defendant's portion of the Report was provided to plaintiff's counsel on July 26, the parties have experienced difficulties coordinating their joint submission to the Court. Defendant reasonably anticipates receiving plaintiff's portion of the report this evening, and will promptly file the Report upon receiving plaintiff's portion and incorporating it into defendant's draft report. For the foregoing reasons, defendant respectfully requests that the Court grant this motion for an enlargement of time by two days, to and including August 1, 2007, within which to file the Joint Preliminary Status Report in this case.
