14 5. U.S. Bank, and its counsel, are still inventorying and analyzing whether and which cases 15 should be dismissed as a result of Deutsche Bank.

20 6. U.S. Bank’s counsel is therefore requesting a thirty day extension until Wednesday, 21 February 14, 2024, to file its response to the pending Motion; 22 7. Counsel for Fidelity does not oppose the requested extension; 23 |{/// 25 |{/// 27 |I/// JT ' January 15, 2024 is an observed holiday.
