JOINT MOTION TO EXTEND THE

ORDER

Defendants.

The parties, Halo Electronics, Inc., Pulse Electronics, Inc., and Pulse Electronics Corp.,

12

jointly move for a short extension to the deadline for submitting the pre-trial order currently set by

13

the Court.

14

The current deadline for the parties to submit the proposed pre-trial order is November 29,

15

2011. (Doc. No. 301.) The parties jointly request that the Court extend that deadline to December

16

23, 2011. There are multiple reasons the parties seek an extension. First, Magistrate Judge Leen

17

has permitted the parties to file supplemental expert reports on November 17, 2011 and December

18

1, 2011 to address various legal and factual developments since the initial reports were exchanged

19

in Fall 2010. (Doc. No. 303.) These supplemental reports may impact the issues of law and fact

20

included in the proposed Pre-Trial Order, as well as the parties’ exhibit lists, which must also be

21

included in the Pre-Trial Order. It would thus be efficient to reset the deadline for the Pre-Trial

22

Order to a date that is a reasonable time after the last supplemental expert reports are due. Second,

23

the proposed extension will not impact either side’s availability for trial or the agreed upon trial

24

dates submitted to the Court in the pre-trial order.

25

28

Therefore, the parties respectfully submit that there is good cause to grant this motion and
extend the deadline for filing the proposed Pre-Trial Order to December 23, 2011.
