SECOND JOINT REQUEST FOR AN ENLARGEMENT OF TIME TO FILE A JOINT STATUS REPORT ISSUED PURSUANT TO THE COURT'S ORDER DATED JUNE 6, 2005 Plaintiff, Swartz Associates, Inc., ("Swartz") and defendant, the United States, hereby request a second enlargement of time to file a joint status report pursuant to the Court's Order dated June 6, 2005. As noted in our first request for an enlargement of time to file a joint status report, the current status of this case is that Swartz has submitted contract claims to the contracting officer of the United States Marshals Service and those claims have been denied. The parties wish to continue their discussions concerning the possibility of settlement, or failing that, a mutually acceptable schedule for proceeding with the case. In order to facilitate these discussions, the parties request a second enlargement of time to file the joint status report. The current date for filing the joint status report is August 1, 2005. The parties request a 39-day enlargement of time until Friday, September 9, 2005, to file a joint status report.
