FORT MYERS DIVISION
GP, minor child by and through her
Mother, JP
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No: 2:15-cv-728-FtM-38CM

LEE COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD,
Defendant.
ORDER
This matter comes before Court upon review of Defendant’s Motion to Extend
Scheduling Order Deadlines (Doc. 65) filed on February 6, 2017.

Defendant’s

current deadline for the disclosure of expert reports is February 13, 2017. Defendant
seeks to extend this deadline to March 30, 2017 primarily due to its previous
difficulties in scheduling Plaintiff’s and her minor child’s depositions, which recently
occurred on January 2017. Doc. 65 at 2-3. Due to the information discovered at the
recently taken depositions, Defendant learned that it needs to obtain an expert and
cannot do so within the current deadline. Id. Plaintiff does not oppose Defendant’s
request, and the Court finds good cause to grant the motion.
ACCORDINGLY, it is hereby
ORDERED:
1.
GRANTED.

Defendant’s Motion to Extend Scheduling Order Deadlines is

2.

Defendant shall have up to and including March 30, 2017 to disclose its

expert reports.
3.

All other deadlines set forth in the Court’s Amended Case Management

and Scheduling Order (Doc. 53) and all directives set forth in the Court’s Case
Management and Scheduling Order (Doc. 34) remain in effect.
DONE and ORDERED in Fort Myers, Florida on this 7th day of February,
2017.
