| Lawyers for Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, who has accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault when they were teenagers, requested an extension Friday evening, asking Republicans to give her one more day to consider the terms of her testimony. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, gave Ford and her attorneys a strict 10 p.m. deadline Friday to respond to the terms of her testimony and did not respond to her plea, leaving it unclear whether it would be granted. He has threatened to call for a vote Monday on Kavanaughâs confirmation if an agreement wasnât made.
