Plaintiff, TACHARA HUGHES, and Defendant, SOUTHERN HILLS MEDICAL CENTER,

17

LLC, by and through their respective counsel of record, hereby stipulate and agree to extend the

18

current deadline to file a Joint Pretrial Order of June 11, 2018, (see ECF No. 45), up to and including

19

June 25, 2018, which is 14 days.

20

Good cause exists for the requested extension. The parties attended a settlement conference

21

on May 9, 2018; however, settlement discussions continued beyond that date until May 25, 2018

22

when an impasse was completely reached. The parties have now turned their attention to the Joint

23

Pre-Trial Order.

24

administrative hearings, an all-day mediation on May 31, and multiple depositions including one in

25

Reno on June 4, and Fort Worth, Texas on June 5 with the associated travel. Further, Plaintiff’s

26

counsel has an outstanding family obligation that is requiring him to travel to New York and he will

27

not return to the office until June 11, which is the due date for the Joint Pre-Trial Order. Counsel

28

will need time to meet and confer on the contents of the Joint Pre-Trial Order and that will not be

Plaintiff’s counsel has had a very busy schedule since May 25 including

possible until after the June 11, 2018 due date.
For the foregoing reasons the parties request an extension of 14 days to June 25, 2018 to file
the Joint Pre-Trial Order with the court.
This is the second request for an extension of this deadline and it is sought in good faith and
not for the purpose of delay.
