`MOTION TO EXTEND DEADLINE
`FOR RESPONDING TO
`DEFENDANTS’ MOTION TO
`DISMISS
`(Doc. 1355)
`(First Request)
`
`
`
`
`
`On October 20, 2021, Defendants filed a Motion for Leave to File Excess Pages for

`1355) that Defendants lodged with their Motion for Leave. On October 22, 2021, the
`United States opposed the Motion for Leave (Doc. 1361), and Defendants replied (Doc.
`1364). On November 1, 2021, the Court granted the Motion for Leave (Doc. 1354) and
`ordered that the docket shall reflect, as filed, the Motion to Dismiss (Order, Doc. 1368).
`Because the United States’ lead trial counsel, Kevin Rapp, is traveling out of the
`country during the week of November 1, 2021, and to provide the United States with
`sufficient time to complete its response to the 29-page Motion to Dismiss, the United
`States, by and through undersigned counsel, respectfully requests that the Court enter an
`order extending and setting the United States’ deadline to respond to the Motion to Dismiss
`(Doc. 1355) for November 17, 2021.1
`The United States has conferred with defense counsel (Whitney Bernstein) about
`this request. Defense counsel has no objection to extending the United States’ response
`deadline to November 17, 2021.
`Excludable delay under 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h) may occur as a result of this motion or
`an order based thereon.
`A proposed form of Order is being lodged herewith.
`
`Respectfully submitted this 2nd day of November, 2021.

`1 This reflects a two-week extension if the United States’ 14-day response deadline
`were deemed to run from the date the Motion to Dismiss was lodged (October 20, 2021),
`or a two-day extension if the 14-day period runs from the date of the Order (November 1,
`2021).
