C. SPECIFIC DESCRIPTION OF DISCOVERY THAT REMAINS TO BE
COMPLETED

(a) Depositions. The parties anticipate taking the deposition of HOA, Alessi & Koenig,

D. REASONS WHY THE DISCOVERY REMAINING WILL NOT BE
COMPLETED WITHIN THE TIMES FRAMES SET BY THE DISCOVERY
ORDER
7
The parties have been engaging in settlement discussions as recently as November 30,
8
2017. In an effort to avoid expending resources, limited discovery was completed pending the
9
results of those discussions. Once the discussions proved unsuccessful, BANA noticed the
10
deposition of Rule 30(b)(6) witnesses for Tow and HOA on January 17, 2018, the date discovery
11
is currently set to close in this matter. Unfortunately, Tow is unable to produce its witness prior
12
to the close of discovery. Accordingly, the parties request a sixty (60) day continuance of the
13
deadlines in this case in order to allow for the completion of depositions.

In addition, the parties note that the deadline for the written discovery served to date is
15
January 16, 2018. The information produced within those responses may lead to additional
16
discoverable documents or witnesses. Accordingly, a sixty (60) day continuance will also afford
17
the parties an opportunity to complete any necessary additional discovery resulting from the
18
review of the responses to written discovery served to date.
