("Plaintiffs") and Defendants Abbott Cardiovascular Systems, Inc., Abbott Laboratories, and Abbott Vascular, Inc. ("Defendants") file this Stipulation and Proposed Order to Enlarge the Damages Dispositive Motion Briefing Schedule. Specifically, subject to approval by the Court, the parties have agreed and stipulate to extend the deadlines (1) for the Responses to Damages Dispositive Motions from March 18, 2009 to March 20, 2009; and (2) for the Replies to Damages Dispositive Motions from March 25, 2009 to March 27, 2009. The parties do not believe that these proposed changes will affect the April 8, 2009 hearing date on the Damages Dispositive Motions previously set by the Court. (See Am. Case Mgmt. & Pretrial Order, Dkt. # 507 at 1; Stip. & Order Setting Forth Schedule, Dkt. # 550, at 3.) Mr. David Brown, an employee of Abbott, is identified by Abbott as a potential witness and submitted a declaration in support of Defendants' Motion for Summary Judgment that Plaintiffs May Not Recover Lost Profits Damages on Certain Stent Sales (Dkt. # 722), which was filed on March 4, 2009. Plaintiffs requested to take his deposition on March 9, 2009, but given the short time frame, Mr. Brown could not be made available to sit for his deposition until March 17, 2009, one day before the current deadline for Plaintiffs to respond to Defendants' Motion. Thus, recognizing that Plaintiffs' Opposition Brief would be due only one day after the deposition of Mr. Brown and as a courtesy to Plaintiffs, Defendants proposed (for Plaintiffs' convenience) and Plaintiffs agreed to extend the briefing schedule by two days, subject to the approval of the Court. Accordingly, the parties seek an order permitting the Responses to Damages Dispositive Motions to be filed no later than March 20, 2009, and the Replies to Damages Dispositive Motions to be filed no later than March 27, 2009.
