EXTENSION OF TIME REQUEST FOR A PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI
No. _______
In The Supreme Court of The United States
Carlos Ramirez, Petitioner,
v.
Bausch and Lomb Inc., Respondent.
APPLICATION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE PETITION FOR WRIT OF
CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT OF APPEALS FOR
THE ELEVENTH CIRCUIT
To the Honorable Chief Justice of the United States:
Pursuant to Title 28, United State Code, Section 2101(c) and rules 13.5 and 30.2 of the
Supreme Court of the United States, application is made for an extension of time within which to
file a petition for a writ of certiorari in this matter be extended for sixty (60) days, to and
including, February 3, 2017.
The order sought to be reviewed is that of the United States Court of Appeals for the
Eleventh Circuit in the case entitled Carlos Ramirez versus Bausch & Lomb, Inc.,($VRX)
The Order sought to be reviewed was entered on September 7, 2016 at which it states; to not
accept any further filling by either party hence, the absence of a petition for either rehearing or
rehearing en banc.
The time allowed by law for filing a petition for a writ of certiorari will expire on,
December 5, 2016. This Application-request is being filed at least ten days before that date.
The Jurisdiction of the Court would be invoked under 28 U.S.C. § 1254.

The order of the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit is appended and was not
reported.
This case presents issues of significant importance to a large sector of consumers in the United
States. The statutes that the jurisdiction of this court is invoked under correspond to the Private
Sector Whistleblower Laws and Act, as well as applicable statute to the Respondent that are
relevant to the Pharmaceutical business such as, The Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act;
GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices and, CFRs (Code of Federal Regulations) 21 C.F.R., Parts
210, 211, 820.
Pro Se Petitioner’s request for an extension of time is necessary due to the following facts;
Petitioner has, diligently, since the final Order from the U.S. Court of Appeals for
the Eleventh Circuit seek for a Pro Bono counselor that can help since he cannot
afford to pay thousands of dollars to retain one. Furthermore, Petitioner has emailed
potential counselors admitted to the Supreme Court, Law Schools, Bar Associations
and has gone to legal aid clinics without success.
Petitioner Ramirez has determined that this is a case important for the consumer
public safety and interest as well as, personally and professionally that, it warrants a
petition for certiorari.
I am a Pro Se Petitioner who needs the additional time since; I am not school in the
law.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner Carlos Ramirez relies upon
The Rules of the Supreme Court of the United States, Rule 13(3) states:

“The time to file a petition for a writ of certiorari runs from the date of entry of the
judgment or order sought to be reviewed, and not from the issuance date of the mandate
(or its equivalent under local practice).”
The Rules of the Supreme Court of the United States, Rule 13(5) also states:
“For good cause, a Justice may extend the time to file a petition for a writ of certiorari for
a period not exceeding 60 days. An application to extend the time to file shall set out the
basis for jurisdiction in this Court, identify the judgment sought to be reviewed, include a
copy of the opinion and any order respecting rehearing, and set out specific reasons why
an extension of time is justified. The application must be filed with the Clerk at least 10
days before the date the petition is due, except in extraordinary circumstances. For the
time and manner of presenting the application, see Rules 21, 22, 30, and 33.2. An
application to extend the time to file a petition for a writ of certiorari is not favored.”
And, wherefore Rule 30(3) states:
“An application to extend the time to file petition for Writ of Certiorari…shall be made to
an individual Justice and presented and served on all other parties as provided by Rule
22.”
WHEREFORE, I respectfully ask this honorable Court to grant Pro Se Petitioner, Carlos
Ramirez, an additional 60 days, to and including February 3, 2017, within which to file a petition
for certiorari.
Respectfully submitted,
Carlos Ramirez
