Plaintiff Ronnie E. Barron (“Plaintiff”) and Defendants K. Martinez and K. Todd
(“Defendants”), by and through their attorneys of record, hereby stipulate to extend the expert
disclosure and discovery deadlines. This stipulation shall not affect the pre-trial conference and trial

dates.
Good cause exists because Plaintiff’s counsel has sought to withdraw as counsel because of a

26

fundamental disagreement on the scope, nature and direction of this case, including the next steps in

27

prosecuting this action. Thus, although Plaintiff and his counsel have been diligently working on

28

efforts to prosecute this action, in the event that Plaintiff’s counsel’s Motion to Withdraw is granted,

1

Plaintiff will require additional time to proceed on a pro se basis or secure counsel and engage in

2

expert discovery so that Plaintiff may continue to prepare this case for trial, if necessary.

3
Based on the foregoing, the parties stipulate to the following continuances:

4

1. The deadline to serve expert witness disclosures shall be extended from May 13, 2016 to

5

May 27, 2016.

6

2. The deadline to serve rebuttal expert witness disclosures shall be extended from June 13,

7

2016 to June 20, 2016.

8

3. The deadline to complete all expert discovery, including depositions of expert witnesses,

9

shall be extended from July 29, 2016 to August 5, 2016.
