UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA CIRCUIT

PHILIP JOSEPH,                               Appellant,

   versus                U.S. App. No. 88-3031

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,                    Appellee.

MOTION TO RESCHEDULE FILING DATES

On March 3, 1988 Deputy Clerk, Carmen A. Gooding entered an Order on behalf of this Court which instructed the Appellant to file certain documents on or before April 4, 1988.

Appellant was unable to comply with the April 4, 1988 filing date because he did not receive MB. Gooding's Order until May 2, 1988.

One of the enclosures in Ms. Gooding's correspondence was a manilia envelope bearing two stamps: a Court Of Appeals date stamp, March 14, 1988, and a D.C. Jail stamp; "NO RECORD FOUND RETURN TO SENDER." Exhibit 1, attached hereto. Appellant presents Exhibit 1 as some indication as to why the Order did not reach him in a timely fashion.

THEREFORE Appellant moves for an extension of time up to and including June 6, 1988 within which to file:

1. A copy of the Decision of the District Court.

2. Statement of Issues to be Raised on Appeal.

3. A report certifying that all necessary transcripts have been ordered.

Respectfully submitted,
