IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT BY: ________________________________
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS DEPUTY
WACO DIVISION
STANDING ORDER REGARDING
JOINT OR UNOPPOSED REQUEST TO CHANGE DEADLINES
In all cases pending before the undersigned, henceforth, the Court automatically grants
any request to extend a deadline or to amend a scheduling order, provided that (1) such request is
unopposed or agreed to between the parties, (2) such request does not change the date of any
hearing, trial, or other Court date, (3) such request does not extend any deadline of a final
submission that affects the Court’s ability to hold a scheduled hearing, trial, or Court event, and
(4) such request does not extend the deadline to answer or otherwise respond to a complaint
more than 45 days from the original answer date. Extensions for final submission deadlines at
least one month before a scheduled hearing, trial, or Court event will not affect the Court. The
parties are ORDERED to file any such request as a notice or stipulation to the Court, instead of
a motion.
This Order amends and supersedes the Court’s previous Standing Order Regarding Joint
or Unopposed Request to Change Deadlines dated March 7, 2025.
SIGNED this 19th day of September, 2025.
ALAN D ALBRIGHT
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
