No. 06-116C Judge Firestone
DEFENDANT'S UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR ENLARGEMENT OF TIME Pursuant to Rule 6(b) and 6.1 of the Rules of the United States Court of Federal Claims, defendant, the United States, respectfully requests an eight-day enlargement of time, to and including August 1, 2006, within which to file its reply to plaintiff's opposition to defendant's cross-motion for summary judgment. Our response is currently due on July 24, 2006. This is defendant's first request for an enlargement of time for this purpose. Defendant's counsel contacted plaintiff's counsel, who states that plaintiff does not oppose this motion. This motion is necessary to afford the Government sufficient time to draft an appropriate reply brief, incorporate comments of agency counsel, and obtain review of its reply brief. Plaintiff filed its response brief on July 7, 2006. However, Government counsel was out of the office from July 10, 2006 through July 20, 2006, to take and defend depositions in Redding, San Francisco, and Sacramento, California in Ralph Franklin & Son Logging v. United States, Fed. Cl. No. 04-1679. Accordingly, defendant seeks a modest enlargement of an additional eight days to file its reply brief.
