extension of dates set in the Court’s Orders re Pretrial and Trial Schedule (MDL Dkt. No. 7665)
(“Track 2 Scheduling Order”) for purposes of Tech Data’s responses to Defendants’ First Set of
Interrogatories, Third Set of Interrogatories, and First Set of Requests for Admission (collectively
“Defendants’ Discovery Requests”) (see MDL Dkt No.8045);
WHEREAS the Parties have also previously stipulated to, and the Court has approved, the
extension of dates set in the Court’s Orders re Pretrial and Trial Schedule (MDL Dkt. No. 7665)
(“Track 2 Scheduling Order”) for purposes of scheduling and taking depositions of a limited
number of current and former employees of Tech Data previously identified by Defendants (the
“Depositions”) (see MDL Dkt. No. 7923);
WHEREAS additional time is needed to meet and confer regarding Tech Data’s responses
to Defendants’ Discovery Requests and to conduct the Depositions.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED by and among the
undersigned counsel as follows:
The close of fact discovery shall be extended to July 19, 2013 (1) for the Parties to meet
and confer regarding Tech Data’s responses to Defendants’ Discovery Requests, or for
Stipulating Defendants to file a motion to compel regarding Defendants’ Discovery Requests, and
(2) to take the Depositions.
If the Stipulating Defendants believe there is good cause to conduct additional discovery
based on information learned solely during the Depositions, the Parties agree that they will meet
and confer in good faith regarding this discovery in the first instance. If the Parties agree that the
discovery is appropriate, the close of fact discovery shall be extended, if necessary, for the
purposes of serving such discovery. If the Parties cannot agree on the appropriateness of this
discovery, the dispute will be brought before the Special Master.
The above extensions do not impact or change the terms or deadline of any other
deadlines between the Parties.
