                    ORDER GRANTING EXTENSION OF TIME  
 
Issued:  June 17, 2022                                     Released:  June 17, 2022 
 
      1.    On June 15, 2022, Arm & Rage, LLC, file a motion to enlarge the issues in the above-
captioned proceeding.  Arm & Rage seeks to add two constitutional issues for consideration:  (1) whether 
the character requirement of section 308(b) of the Communications Act survives heightened scrutiny under 
the First Amendment; and (2) whether revocation of the license for WJBE(AM) would violate either the 
First Amendment, under rational basis scrutiny, or the Equal Protection Clause.1  Pursuant to section 1.294 
of the Commission’s rules, 47 CFR § 1.294, the Enforcement Bureau’s response to the Arm & Rage motion 
would be due in four business days, or by June 22, 2022.  The Enforcement Bureau requests additional time 
to respond, until July 15, 2022, due to the complexity of the issues raised and the press of other business.2  
Arm & Rage counters that a shorter extension, until June 29, 2022, is reasonable but that the deadline 
proposed by the Enforcement Bureau is excessive.3   
       
      2.    The Presiding Judge agrees that it is reasonable to allow the Enforcement Bureau additional 
time to respond to the Arm & Rage motion.  The Bureau requests an extension of more than three weeks 
beyond the current deadline; Arm & Rage posits that a one-week extension is adequate.  While Arm & Rage 
is correct that the Bureau is not being asked to analyze these complex constitutional issues but merely to 
address whether they should be added to the case, that evaluation necessarily involves some research and 
thoughtful consideration.  Accordingly, the Presiding Judge will extend the deadline for the Enforcement 
Bureau to respond until July 8, 2022.   
 
      3.    Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that the Enforcement Bureau’s Motion for Extension of 
Time, filed June 16, 2022, IS GRANTED to the extent indicated herein. 
       
      4.    IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Enforcement Bureau SHALL FILE its response to 
Arm & Rage’s Motion to Enlarge the Issues, filed June 15, 2022, on or before July 8, 2022.
