Last updated March 14, 2009 Time Extension As Defendant
Do not be afraid to ask the opposing attorney for a time extension if you need it. Being pro se the other side pretty much expects you to ask.
Properly done, you ask your opponent's lawyer for a twenty day time extension, stating by what day your answer will be filed.
They might as well agree because the court almost always grants the first request for more time. You must then file a notice with the court that you have conferred with
the opposing attorney and that both parties are in agreement with the time extension and what date the court can expect the filing.
If the opposing attorney does not agree to the time extension immediately file for one with the court. Include a statement that you have
conferred with opposing counsel and you are not in agreement.
After the first time extension you will really need a good reason for more time.
