No. 08-75C (Judge Miller)
JOINT MOTION FOR ENLARGEMENT OF TIME Pursuant to Rules 6(b)(1) and 6.1 of the Rules of the United States Court of Federal Claims ("RCFC"), the parties respectfully request a one-month enlargement of time, to and including October 22, 2008, to either file a stipulation of dismissal or for plaintiff, Burns & McDonnell Engineering Company, Inc. ("B&M"), to respond to the Court's August 8, 2008 order (DE #20). The response is currently due September 22, 2008. This is the parties' second request for an enlargement of time since the Court issued the August 8, 2008 order. On August 8, 2008, the Court issued an order on the United States' motion to dismiss requesting that by August 20, 2008, the parties either file a stipulation of dismissal or that B&M file a supplemental brief. The parties are currently engaged in settlement negotiations which they believe may result in a dismissal of this action without prejudice without the need for further litigation. Additional time is needed to continue the discussions. For the foregoing reasons, the parties respectfully request that the Court grant this motion for an enlargement of time by one-month, to and including October 22, 2008, to either file a stipulation of dismissal or for B&M to respond to the Court's August 8, 2008 order.
