[Appellee or Appellant]
GOVERNMENT'S MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME WITHIN
WHICH TO FILE PETITION FOR REHEARING
The undersigned attorney for the United States, [appellee
or
appellant] in the above-captioned case, hereby moves for a
30-day extension
of time within which to file a petition for rehearing in this case.
The judgment
in this case was entered on [date], and, unless the time is

a petition for
rehearing en banc in this case. See 28 C.F.R. § 0.20(b).
Accordingly, the

including

Respectfully submitted.
