PLAINTIFF'S UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME Plaintiff, Caddell Construction Co., Inc. ("Caddell"), files its Unopposed Motion for Extension of Time, seeking an extension of those deadlines set forth in this Court's August 18, 2005 Order. 1. In support, Caddell states the following: This dispute involves the construction of a project for
the Veterans Administration in Memphis, Tennessee in 1996-97. Because the project was constructed almost ten (10) years ago, and because pre-construction VA design documents needed to be located and inspected, Caddell had difficulty quickly assembling the documents needed by its expert to compile his report and, as a result, its expert encountered unforeseeable delays in
rendering his report by the scheduled deadline of October 31, 2005.
