5. No other extensions of Polis’s deadline to file a Reply in Support of his Motion to
Dismiss the Amended Complaint have been previously sought.
6. Given Plaintiffs’ non-opposition to this Motion, and the existing deadline for one
of Polis’s co-defendants, no party, nor the public, will be prejudiced by this extension.
7. Under D.C.COLO.LCivR 6.1(c), undersigned counsel is contemporaneously
serving a copy of this motion on his client.
Accordingly, Defendant Jared Polis, in his official capacity as Governor of Colorado,
requests an extension of time, up to and including January 11, 2021, to file a Reply in Support of
his Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint.
RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED this 17th day of December, 2020.
