More details to this question:
In late November, I was served with a complaint against me personally for breach of contract. I have to respond to it just before Christmas, but I likely won't be able to retain an attorney by then. I wrote to the plaintiff's attorney and requested an extension of the filing deadline to mid-January, but I have not received a response from her. Is there any way I can request the court for an extension?

You can hire an attorney to represent you or you can contact opposing counsel for an extension. There is no way to ask the court for an extension. Alternatively, you can file a response to the complaint on time.
