`
`April 8, 2023 [ECF No. 1] and served on Akin Gump on May 10, 2023 [ECF No. 21]; and the time

`Case 2:23-cv-01997-MCA-JSA Document 44 Filed 06/12/23 Page 2 of 2 PageID: 1407

`cause for the requested extension having been shown due to the complexity of the issues in the

`
`or responded to the Complaint, and that the requested extension would place Akin Gump on the
`
`same schedule as other defendants; and the lack of prejudice to Plaintiff;
`
`IT IS ON THIS ______ day of June, 2023, hereby
`12th
`
`ORDERED, that the application of Defendants Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP
`
`and Matthew A. Pearson is GRANTED and the time for Akin Gump to answer, move or
`
`otherwise response to the Complaint is extended to July 11, 2023.
