24

& AMERICA, INC. and RAY HRDLICKA and Defendant JERRY SMITH, by and through their

25

undersigned Counsel, pursuant to Local Rules 143 as follows:

26

1.

The parties respectfully request that the District Court modify the Amended Pretrial

STIPULATION AND ORDER TO MODIFY AMENDED PRETRIAL SCHEDULING ORDER

1

2.

On July 17, 2013, the Court issued an Amended Pretrial Scheduling Order modifying

2

certain discovery cutoff dates. Specifically, the Court set the following deadlines:

3

Close of discovery

January 10, 2014

4

Expert witness disclosure deadline

March 10, 2014

5

Supplemental and Rebuttal witness disclosure deadline

March 30, 2014

6

Pretrial motion hearing deadline

July 3, 2014

7

Pretrial Conference

September 11, 2014

8

Trial

November 17, 2014

9

3.

The parties recently engaged in private mediation on December 13, 2013. The parties

10

wish to continue those discussions in good faith. Moreover, the calendars of counsel for the parties

11

have become congested to the point of mutually requiring additional time to complete discovery in

12

light of the continued discussions.

13
14
15

4.

The parties previously requested once before to extend the discovery deadline. With

this request, no other dates are being requested to be modified.
5.

Therefore, the parties respectfully submit that good cause exists to revise the Amended

16

Pretrial Scheduling Order dated July 17, 2013, and therefore request modifications of the Pretrial

17

Scheduling Order as to the close of discovery only to extend the deadline to March 10, 2014. All

18

other dates are to remain unchanged.

as valid as an original signature.
IT IS SO STIPULATED.
