Summary

The claimant requested a one month extension of time to file its evidence-in-chief. The reasons given included a recent change of attorneys, and difficulties communicating with an expert witness in Sri Lanka.

The defendant would only agree to a two week extension of time.

After hearing both sides, the hearing officer granted an unconditional 2 week extension of time, and said that the claimant could have the additional 2 weeks extension provided that it filed a specified piece of evidence within the first 2 week extended period.
