CASE NO.: 3:03-cv-149(WIG)
JUNE 20, 2005
PLAINTIFF'S FIRST MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME Plaintiff Ferron Shorter Jr., by and through his undersigned counsel, respectfully requests an extension of two days, from June 20, 2005, to June 22, 2005, to comply with an Order of the Court instructing Plaintiff to: [S]ubmit a calculation of the amount of prejudgment interest from January 23, 2002, to the date of this ruling, compounded either monthly or biweekly (depending on how Plaintiff was paid by The Hartford), using the weekly rate of interest under ยง 1961(a) as of the Friday on or immediately preceding the date on which Plaintiff would have been paid. See E.E.O.C. v. Yellow Freight System, 2002 WL 31011859, at *33. This calculation should be submitted within twenty (20) days of the date of this ruling, to which defense counsel will have ten (10) days to object and, if so, to offer an alternative calculation. Either side may enlist the help of an expert not previously disclosed in the trial memorandum.
In support of the instant request, undersigned counsel represents that due to time required in preparing summary judgment opposition papers in the matter of Branciforte v. Town of Middletown, et al., Case No. 3:02-cv-928(AVC) for filing on June 20, 2005, and the expiration of a discovery deadline in Crocco v. Advance Auto Parts, et al., Case No. 3:04-cv-1608(JCH) on Jun 25, 2005, Plaintiff's undersigned counsel requires an additional two days to finalize Plaintiff's submission in response to the Court's May 31, 2005, Order.
