(“Millennium”), and Third-Party 7 Defendants JONATHAN FELDMAN (“Feldman”) and PATRIOT EXPLORATION 8 COMPANY, LLC (“Patriot”) (collectively, the “Millennium Parties”), by and through their 9 counsel, hereby move the Court for an Order extending the deadline for the filing of the Pre10 Trial Order. The Pre-Trial Order is currently due on February 19, 2016, and the Millennium 11 Parties hereby request that the deadline be extended for an additional 30 days to March 21, HOWARD & HOWARD ATTORNEYS PLLC 3800 Howard Hughes Pkwy., Suite 1000 Las Vegas, NV 89169 (702) 257-1483 12 2016. 13 This request is made due to the shear volume of documents produced in this matter and 14 the complex nature of the claims and defenses involved. Additional time is necessary to allow 15 the parties to work through and determine the undisputed facts, the disputed facts and the 16 disputed issues of law for trial. Further, additional time is necessary to work through and 17 determine the stipulations and objections regarding potential trial exhibits. There is also good 18 cause to extend the deadline due the upcoming Settlement Conference before Magistrate 19 Hoffman. Per the Order Scheduling A Settlement Conference (Dkt. #230), the parties 20 settlement statements are due on March 25. It is anticipated that the settlement statements will 21 contain a significant amount of overlap with the Pre-Trial Order, and the extension will allow 22 the parties to work on both submissions in a more efficient and effective manner. 23 Counsel for the Millennium Parties has consulted with counsel for the Defendants/Third 24 Party Plaintiffs regarding the need and intention to file this motion, and counsel for 25 Defendants/Third Party Plaintiffs affirm that they had no opposition to the motion. For that 26 reason, this motion has been submitted as an unopposed motion. 27 /// 28 Page 2 of 4 Case 2:12-cv-00462-MMD-CWH Document 233 Filed 02/18/16 Page 3 of 4 1 2 3 4 Therefore, the Millennium Parties hereby request that the deadline to file the Pre-Trial Order be continued from February 19, 2016 to March 21, 2016.
