October 20, 2022 Via ECF Hon. Judge Paul G. Gardephe MEMORANDUM ENDORSED US. District Judge Thurgood Marshall Courthouse 40 Foley Square New York, NY 10007 Re: Felton vy. Mid Bronx Senior Citizens Council, Inc., et al Index No.: 22-CV-3519 (PGG) (GWG) Dear Hon. Judge Gardephe: This firm is co-counsel in our representation of Defendants in the above referenced matter, and I write on behalf of all parties to respectfully request an extension of the deadline to submit a settlement agreement and motion for court approval pursuant to Cheeks v. Freeport Pancake House, Inc.,

(2d Cir. 2015). The parties have drafted settlement language and are in the process of obtaining the necessary signatures for the written settlement agreement. However, despite our best efforts, the parties were not able to obtain all of the signatures by the current deadline, which is today. The parties respectfully request a seven-day extension. If granted, the new deadline would be October 27, 2022. This is Defendants’ first request for an extension of the deadline set by the court. Should the court grant this request, no future deadlines would be affected. Thank you for your time and consideration regarding this matter. Very truly yours, /S/ Joshua Beldner Extension to November 15, 2022, granted. Please file the application (which should be addressed to Judge CC: VIA ECF Gardephe unless the parties consent to the undersigned) Counsel for all parties earlier if possible. So Ordered. eb Forse
