COURT OF CHANCERY OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE JOHN W. NOBLE 417 SOUTH STATE STREET VICE CHANCELLOR DOVER, DELAWARE 19901 TELEPHONE: (302) 739-4397 FACSIMILE: (302) 739-6179 April 13, 2015 Melissa N. Donimirski, Esquire David S. Eagle, Esquire Proctor Heyman LLP Klehr Harrison Harvey Branzburg LLP 300 Delaware Avenue, Suite 200 919 North Market Street, Suite 1000 Wilmington, DE 19801 Wilmington, DE 19801 Re: Sutherland v. Sutherland C.A. No. 2399-VCN Date Submitted: April 8, 2015 Dear Counsel: Plaintiff Martha S. Sutherland, as Trustee of the Martha S. Sutherland Revocable Trust dated April 18, 1976, has moved for an extension of time to respond to the Verified Petition for a Charging Lien (the “Petition”) filed by Intervenor Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP. This case cannot fairly be characterized as one that has moved through the system with alacrity. In addition, the Plaintiff intends to obtain other counsel. Some extension is warranted; the extension to May 6, 2015, as requested by Plaintiff seems unnecessary. Sutherland v. Sutherland C.A. No. 2399-VCN April 13, 2015 Page 2 Accordingly, Plaintiff shall respond to the Petition on or before April 30, 2015. IT IS SO ORDERED. Very truly yours, /s/ John W. Noble JWN/cap cc: Jay N. Moffitt, Esquire Robert S. Saunders, Esquire Register in Chancery-K
