J. Englehardt, Chief Judge of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana, has issued a Miscellaneous Order concerning deadlines. The Order reads:
Counsel or Parties who believe that deadlines for filing of any motion in a pending case have been, or will be, immediately affected by the recent flooding in Louisiana may be offered relief by the filing of a motion for extension, even if past the filing deadline. Any late-filed request for extension should set forth in detail the circumstances for such late filing.
