UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF KANSAS
MW BUILDERS, INC.,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 16-2340-JAR

FIRE PROTECTION GROUP, INC.,
Defendant.
SECOND AMENDED SCHEDULING ORDER
The parties have filed a joint motion (ECF No. 48) to amend the scheduling order
in this case.1 The court finds good cause to grant the motion and amend the scheduling
order. However, although the parties specifically assert that the June 12, 2018 trial
setting will not be affected by the requested extensions, the trial setting is tied to the
dispositive motion deadline, i.e., the court must schedule enough time for such motions to
be fully briefed and decided prior to trial. Accordingly, with the consent of the presiding
U.S. District Judge, the trial setting is reset and the scheduling order is amended as
follows:
SUMMARY OF DEADLINES AND SETTINGS

Dated July 28, 2017, at Kansas City, Kansas.
