This matter is before the Court on Defendants’ Motion to Accept Late Filing of
Their Motion to Amend the Caption [Docket No. 89; Filed March 11, 2013] (the “Motion
to File”); on Defendants’ Motion to Amend the Caption [Docket No. 91; Filed March 22,
2013] (the “Motion to Amend”); and on Plaintiff’s Request for Extension of Time [Docket
No. 97; Filed March 15, 2013] (the “Plaintiff’s Motion”).
In Plaintiff’s Motion [#97], Plaintiff requests extensions of three deadlines for
unspecified matters: March 8, March 15, and June 1, 2013. Plaintiff claims that he has not
yet received a copy of the Minutes for the Scheduling Conference held on February 27,
2013, outlining the various deadlines in this matter.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion [#97] is GRANTED in part,
DENIED in part, and DENIED as moot in part, as follows:
Plaintiff’s Motion is granted to the extent it requests an extension of the March 15,
2013 deadline for joinder of parties or amendment of pleadings. The deadline for joinder
-1-

of parties or amendment of pleadings is extended to April 4, 2013.
Plaintiff’s Motion is denied without prejudice to the extent it seeks an extension
of the June 1, 2013 deadline for designation of affirmative experts.
Plaintiff’s Motion is denied as moot to the extent it seeks an extension of the March
8, 2013 deadline for Defendants to file a motion to amend the case caption. The Court has
already addressed this request. See Minute Order [#95].
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court shall send Plaintiff another
hard copy of the Minutes (with attachments) from the Scheduling Conference held on
February 27, 2013 [#81, #81-1, #81-2].
Turning to Defendants’ Motion to File [#89], Defendants cite significant technological
problems throughout their law firm the day they were required to file their Motion to Amend

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Motion to File [#89] is GRANTED. Defendants’
Motion to Amend [#91] is accepted as timely filed.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Motion to Amend [#91] is GRANTED.
Defendant Mary Holdridge was dismissed from this action on January 17, 2013 [#73]. On
