Pursuant to Local Rule IA 6-1 of the United States District Court for the District of
Nevada, Plaintiff Nicole Houle (“Ms. Houle”) and Defendant Bartenders Union Local 165
(improperly named on caption as “Bar Tender’s Union 165”) (the “Union”) by and through their

18

undersigned counsel, hereby agree and stipulate as follows:
1.

On March 17, 2017, the Court issued the Order Scheduling Early Neutral

21

Evaluation Session (ECF No. 25), and scheduled the Early Neutral Evaluation Session (“ENE

22

Session”) in this case for April 21, 2017.

23
24

2.

This is the parties first request to continue the ENE Session.

3.

On April 13, 2017, Ms. Houle was diagnosed with a medical condition that will

25
26
27
28

require extensive testing during the week of April 17-21, 2017.
4.

Following Ms. Houle’s medical tests, it is anticipated she will not be able to

participate in the ENE Session or, if able to participate, her participation will be limited.

5.

Additionally, on April 14, 2017, Ms. Houle held her initial intake interview with

the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”).
6.

Following her interview, the EEOC investigator informed Ms. Houle that, if she

would like, she can request a right to sue letter immediately after her charge is filed and there is a

5

high probability that her request would be granted.
7.

Ms. Houle will request her right to sue letter as soon as possible.

8.

As a result, it is probable that Ms. Houle will be able to add the Mirage as a party

to this case in the very near future.
In light of the foregoing, the parties request that the ENE Session be continued for 45
days so Ms. Houle can complete the requisite medical testing for her diagnosis and so Ms. Houle

12
can add the Mirage as a party to this case with enough time for the Mirage to prepare for the
13

16

ENE Session.
IT IS SO STIPULATED.
DATED this ___ day of April, 2017.
