Judge Allyne R. Ross grants extension to file response and reply in civil case

Judge Allyne R. Ross issued an order on November 21, 2023, granting the plaintiff additional time to file their opposition to a pending motion. The plaintiff must serve their opposition by November 27, 2023.

The defendant’s reply is due by December 6, 2023. Both parties are required to electronically file all motion papers by the December 6 deadline. The court emphasized that any further changes to this briefing schedule require explicit permission.

This order responds to the plaintiff’s motion for an extension, identified as motion number 80, which the court approved. The case remains active, but the underlying motion and its subject matter are not specified in the available docket information.

The court’s control over the schedule signals a desire to keep the case on a firm timeline despite the extension. Judge Ross’s order sets a clear framework for the next phase of briefing, which will shape the court’s consideration of the pending motion.

The absence of details on the motion’s content leaves the stakes and potential outcomes unclear at this stage. The parties must adhere strictly to the new deadlines or seek court approval for any further adjustments. This procedural development marks a routine but important step in the litigation’s progress under Judge Ross’s supervision.
