Karas from Samuel H. Rudman dated 11/3/05 re: The Court will grant Plaintiffs' one week extension to respond to the motion. This schedule was set several months in advance and counsel therefore cannot claim that they had not have time to schedule their response around the holidays, particulary when information about the holidays presumably has been available for some time - including the time of year these holidays take place. Moreover, no clims is made that there have been two weeks' worth of holidays. Finally, the Court is troubled by the last-minute nature of this request. No further extensions will be granted.
