14916637v.1

1

In its Order filed September 7, 2012, this Court asked the Parties to submit a joint status

2

report following mediation. The Court asked the Parties to advise whether the case had settled.

3

The Court also asked that the joint status report indicate the Parties’ plans and schedules for

4

completing expert discovery and their position with respect to the impact of further expert

5

discovery on the filing of any dispositive motions.

6

The Parties attended mediation on October 10, 2012 before Vivien Williamson, Esq. The

7

matter did not settle. Defendants request an extension of the deadline to complete expert

8

discovery. Plaintiff is agreeable to Defendants’ request and stipulates to such. The Parties

9

anticipate having the depositions of expert witnesses and Plaintiff’s treating doctors completed

10

by November 16, 2012. Therefore, the Parties request the deadline to complete expert discovery

11

be extended to November 16, 2012. The Parties do not request that any additional deadlines be

12

extended. The Parties do not believe that any further expert discovery will have any impact on
