deadline, hearing, or trial is moved to a date'certain. Respondent asks that the

instant matter be put on hold "until Respondent's family situation is resolved." No

one knows when that might be.

C-15-102498 OT), and he continues to prosecute that case. He was present for a

suit in the U. S. District Court for District of Maryland (Case No. 15-CV-01241-

RDB) which he is vigorously pursuing. Respondent has not asked for any delays forfilings or hearings in those matters. He is only seeks a delay in this case where heis the Respondent rather than a plaintiff.
