No. 05-738T Judge Thomas C. Wheeler
PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE RESPONSE TO UNITED STATES' MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION Plaintiff, by its attorneys, and pursuant to RCFC Rule 6.1, respectfully requests that this Court grant it a 10-day extension of time to file its response to Defendant's Motion for Reconsideration. As grounds for this request, Plaintiff submits as follows: 1. On March 26, 2007, this Court entered an order requesting Plaintiff to submit a
response to Defendant's Motion for Reconsideration on or before April 9, 2007. At the time the Court's order was issued, Plaintiff's counsel had committed to travel arrangements that required his absence from his office the majority of the week of March 26, 2007 through March 30, 2007, and the week of April 2, 2007 through April 6, 2007. Counsel's extended absence over such time period gives rise to this request for an extension, in order to allow counsel sufficient time upon his return to prepare Plaintiff's response. 2. On March 30, 2007, Plaintiff's counsel contacted Defendant's counsel by electronic
mail to solicit his consent to the requested extension. Defendant's counsel has replied that he has no objection to the requested extension. 3. No prior requests for an extension of time have been made to the Court.
