`
`DEFENDANT EQUIFAX INFORMATION SERVICES LLC’S MOTION FOR
`EXTENSION OF TIME TO RESPOND TO PLAINTIFF’S COMPLAINT
`
`Defendant Equifax Information Services LLC, incorrectly named as Equifax Credit
`
`Union, (“Equifax”), by counsel, files this motion for a 21-day extension of time to respond to
`
`Plaintiff’s Complaint (“Complaint”), pursuant to Local Rule 7(a) which states as follows:
`
`Upon certification by a moving party that there has been no
`previous extension of time to plead and that the opposing party has
`not filed in the record an objection to an extension of time, then on
`an ex parte motion and order, the Court will allow one extension
`for a period of twenty-one days from the time the pleading would
`otherwise be due. Further extensions will not be granted by
`stipulation, but only by motion to the Court and for good cause
`shown. This rule shall apply to pleadings listed in Fed. R. Civ. P.
`7(a).
`
`1.
`
`Plaintiff’s Complaint was filed on September 21, 2022. [Dkt. No. 1].
