EXTENDING TIME TO COMPLETE

Judge: Honorable Ronald M. Whyte
Courtroom: 6, 4th Floor

The parties in the above-captioned matter hereby stipulate as follows:
20
1.
21
22
23
WHEREAS the current scheduling order of April 14, 2016 provides for a deadline to
complete private mediation of August 31, 2016.
2.
WHEREAS the parties have been diligently engaged in discovery, including the following:
a.
Arranging for two defense medical examinations of plaintiff: a neurological
24
examination that was completed on July 11, 2016 and a neuropsychological
25
examination to be conducted on August 30, 2016;
26
b.
Completing depositions of plaintiff (7/11/16), plaintiff’s treating physician Dr. Rosen
27
(7/29/16), employees of plaintiff’s medical practice (8/19/16 and 8/22/16), and
28
bookkeepers and accountants for plaintiff’s medical practice (8/18/16, 8/19/16 and

1
8/22/16);
2
c.
Scheduling additional depositions, including the deposition of plaintiff’s neurologist,
3
Dr. Helman (originally scheduled on 8/22/16 but continued to 9/20/16 at the request
4
of the witness), and plaintiff’s colleague, Dr. Lubben (9/9/16);
5
d.
6
7
Conferring regarding additional depositions to be set, including the flight attendant
involved in the subject incident.
3.
Notwithstanding the parties’ diligent efforts, the case is not yet ripe for mediation. Plaintiff
8
alleges that she has sustained significant and permanent injuries and a significant loss of
9
income. These claims require further investigation before a meaningful mediation can be
10
11
12
conducted.
4.
Therefore the parties propose that the deadline to conduct private mediation be extended by
approximately 80 days, from August 31, 2016 to November 18, 2016.
13
14
IT IS SO STIPULATED.
