RAGUSA, Plaintiffs; v. THE HERSHEY COMPANY, formerly known as HERSHEY FOODS CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, Defendant. DEFENDANT'S UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR ENLARGEMENT OF TIME FOR SUBMISSION OF REPLY BRIEFS IN SUPPORT OF MOTIONS IN LIMINE Defendant, The Hershey Company ("Hershey"), respectfully moves for an order granting Hershey a one-day enlargement of time for submission of its reply briefs (the "Replies") in support of its Motion in Limine Regarding Nonparty Witness Patricia C. Mooney and Motion in Limine Regarding Prior Texas Proceedings and Prior Parties, for the reasons set forth herein: CERTIFICATION PURSUANT TO D.C.COLO.LCIVR 7.1(A) Counsel for Hershey conferred with counsel for Plaintiffs regarding this motion on July 27, 2007. This motion is unopposed. ARGUMENT 1. 2. The Replies are currently due on July 27, 2007. July 27, 2007 is also the deadline for Hershey to provide Plaintiffs with its

respective depositions of Bernard Banas, Timothy Dunigan, and Walter Woods for use at trial. Such objections and cross-designations have taken substantially more time to complete than Hershey had anticipated. 3. On July 26, 2007, undersigned counsel was present in Chicago, Illinois, for the
preservation deposition of nonparty witness Larry A. Smith. (Counsel for Plaintiffs participated in the deposition by videoconference from the office of undersigned counsel in Denver, at Hershey's expense.) Because such preservation deposition took substantially longer than Hershey had anticipated, undersigned counsel was unable to return to Denver until late in the evening of July 26, 2007 and could not devote substantial time to the editing of the Replies on such date. 4. Under the circumstances, Hershey respectfully requests that this Court grant
Hershey a one-day enlargement of time, up to and including July 30, 2007, in which to file the Replies. No party would be prejudiced if Hershey were granted such enlargement of time.1 5. 6.1(D). WHEREFORE, Hershey respectfully requests that this Court grant Hershey a one-day enlargement of time, up to and including July 30, 2007, for the submission of the Replies. Respectfully submitted this 27th day of July, 2007. A copy of this motion is being served on Hershey, pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR

Anticipating that Hershey would be able to file the Replies on July 27, 2007, Hershey filed its Unopposed Motion to File Under Seal Reply in Support of Motion in Limine regarding Nonparty Witness Patricia C. Mooney on such date. That motion relates to the Reply in Support of Motion in Limine Regarding Nonparty Patricia C. Mooney, which Hershey will file under seal on July 30, 2007. 2
