DEFENDANTS' MOTION FOR ENLARGEMENT OF TIME

Defendants respectfully request, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P 6(b), an enlargemnet of time of one business day,[1] to and including August 14, 1995, within which to file their opposition to plaintiffs' motion for partial reconsideration of the Court's April 12, 1995 Order granting dismissal of all claims in this action except plaintiffs' claim concerning display of flags. In support of this motion, counsel for defendants states that, due to press of other business and personal obligations, she has been unable to complete the opposition by this date. However, defendants' opposition has been substantially prepared, and counsel for defendants anticipates that the opposition will be completed and filed on the next business day, August 14, 1995.

For these reasons, defendants respectfully request this brief


[1 While the court did not set a specific date by which this opposition need be filed, out of an abundance of caution, counsel for defendant files this request for a brief enlargement of the time she indicated to the Court's law clerk for filing this opposition at a status hearing before the Court on August 4, 1995.]

enlargment of time. An Order consistent with this relief accompanies this motion.

Respectfully submitted,
