      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.

        Accordingly, Plaintiff shall respond to the Petition on or before April 30,

2015.

        IT IS SO ORDERED.

                                             Very truly yours,

                                             /s/ John W. Noble
