`ORDER
`
`
`
`On July 19, 2019, the government filed a motion for a 60-day enlargement of time to file
`
`an answer or otherwise respond to the complaint in the above-captioned matter, pursuant to Rule
`
`6(b) of the Rules of the United States Court of Federal Claims (docket entry no. 5). Counsel for
`
`the government states that the additional time is necessary for the government to analyze the
`
`claims and prosecution histories for all seven patents at issue in this case and to review and
`
`address the allegations in the complaint. Id. at 3. In addition, the government states that the
`
`additional time is necessary because the United States Patent and Trademark Office is currently
`
`reviewing four of the seven patents at issue, and so waiting for the agency’s decision could
`
`streamline the litigation in this case. Id. at 4.
`
`On August 2, 2019, plaintiffs filed a response to the government motion for an
`
`enlargement of time (docket entry no. 6). Counsel for plaintiffs states that they do not oppose
`
`the government’s motion. Id.
`
`In view of the foregoing, and for good cause shown, the Court GRANTS the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Case 1:19-cv-00859-RTH Document 7 Filed 08/05/19 Page 2 of 2
`
`government’s motion for an enlargement of time. The government shall FILE an answer or
`
`otherwise respond to the complaint on or before October 11, 2019.
`
`IT IS SO ORDERED.
