Pursuant to Local Civil Rule 6-1(a), Defendant NAV-LVH LLC dba Westgate Las Vegas
Resort & Casino (“Defendant”) and Plaintiff Ken Kachur (“Plaintiff”), by and through their
respective counsel of record, hereby stipulate as follows:
This request is being made timely in accordance with LR 26-4 and the prior scheduling
Order, which provides that requests for further discovery extensions must be made no later than
27
twenty-one (21) days before the existing discovery cut-off date, or, here, by February 12, 2018.
28
This is the third request for an extension.
1
32209492.1
1
This stipulation is made and based upon the following factors.
2
To date, the parties have both made their initial disclosures to the other side. Defendant
3
has propounded written discovery to Plaintiff, to which Plaintiff has responded. Plaintiff has also
4
propounded written discovery to Defendant, which is outstanding but timely. In addition, the
5
parties have conducted some depositions and are in the process of locating a number of witnesses
6
who have moved or left the state. For example, a key witness has moved to California and it has
7
8
9
10
been difficult to coordinate a suitable date.
Further, counsel for both parties have other cases
before this Court, which involve overlapping witnesses to some extent and, thus, the attorneys are
coordinating the scheduling of the depositions in such cases to minimize the burden on the
witnesses and travel for out-of-state counsel.
Lastly, because of the nature of this case, a
11
12
13
deposition of Plaintiff’s doctor is required and the scheduling of this deposition has been
hampered as a result of the holiday season and the doctor’s busy schedule.
The parties and their attorneys have diligently worked to complete discovery as
14
15
16
expediently as possible and will continue to try to complete the remaining discovery in as
expedient a manner as possible.
Given the above circumstances, the parties request that the discovery period be extended as

2
extensions must be made no later than twenty-one (21) days before the newly-proposed discovery

cut-off date of June 4, 2018, or no later than twenty-one (21) days before any other deadline

sought to be extended.
