FORT MYERS DIVISION
UNIVERSAL PROPERTY &
CASUALTY INSURANCE
COMPANY, a/s/o Alan Hering and
Gail Hering
Plaintiff,
v.
Case No: 2:15-cv-500-FtM-99CM
TOSHIBA AMERICA
INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC.,
Defendant.
ORDER
This matter comes before the Court upon review of the parties’ Motion to
Retain Mediator (Doc. 48) filed on February 8, 2017.
On September 21, 2015, the
parties filed their first Motion to Retain Mediator, seeking to retain Ron Shapiro, who
is certified in the Southern District of Florida, as their mediator.
Doc. 24.
States District Judge Sheri Polster Chappell granted their motion.
United
Doc. 27.
The
parties filed the present motion seeking to substitute Ron Shapiro with Dominic
Brandy as their mediator because of their scheduling conflicts.
Doc. 48.
The
parties allege that Dominic Brandy also is certified in the Southern District of
Florida.
Id. Because the parties stipulated to the substitution of their mediator,
and Judge Chappell previously granted the parties’ similar motion, the Court finds
good cause to grant the present motion and allow the substitution of Ron Shapiro
with Dominic Brandy as the parties’ mediator.
Docs. 27, 48.
ACCORDINGLY, it is hereby
ORDERED:
1.
The Motion to Retain Mediator (Doc. 48) is GRANTED.
2.
Dominic Brandy of the law firm of Upchurch, Watson, White & Max,
Royal Palm II at Southpointe, 900 S. Pine Island Road, Suite 410, Plantation, FL,
33324, is designated as the parties’ mediator.
3.
Counsel is responsible for notifying and providing pertinent documents to
the mediator as the Middle District of Florida does not serve mediators as a matter
of course.
DONE and ORDERED in Fort Myers, Florida on this 22nd day of February,
2017.
