           Plaintiffs pro se,      |          Judge Charles R. Richey
                                   |
               v.                  |
                                   |
     The United States, et. al.    |
           Defendants.             |

PLAINTIFFS' MOTION FOR ENLARGEMENT OF TIME

Plaintiffs respectfully request, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 6(b), an enlargement of time, to and including June 3, 1995, within which to file their combined oppositions to the various motions filed by defendants on May 15th, 1995. In support of this motion, plaintiffs state as follows:

Due to the unexpected, allegedly illegal May 26, 1995 arrest of plaintiff W. Thomas, who bears primary responsibility for preparing the paperwork in this matter, and the additional burdens which that arrest has added to Thomas' pressing workload including an application for emergency relief which was filed on this date, Thomaas has not had an adequate opportunity to prepare the pleadings due (pursuant to the motion for an Enlargement of Time filed May 24, 1995) on this date.

This unexpected nuisence has prevented Thomas from carefully reviewing the extensive pleadings in this matter to ascertain the factual inaccuracy and rationality of defendants arguements, and to refer the Court to the specific pleadings and filings which address any such preceived legal, factual and logical inaccuracies.

This motion is sought in good faith and with deep regret for this essential delay in these proceedings.

WHEREFORE, plaintiffs respectfully request that the time within which they may file their combined reply to the various mpleadings filed by defendants on June 1, 1995 be enlarged to and including May 31, 1995.

Respectfully submitted this 30st day of May, 1995,
