Case No. 2:22-cv-01287-JCM-BNW
Stipulation to Extend Joint Pretrial Order
Deadline
(Sixth Request)

Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 6(b)(1)(B), as well as LR IA 6-1, LR 26-3, Plaintiff

18 Latasha Carroll and Defendant United States of America, by and through their undersigned
19 counsel, hereby request another extension of the joint pretrial order deadline as they are
20 working towards settling this matter. The parties request a 45-day extension of the current
21 joint pretrial order deadline of May 31, 2024. ECF No. 35. This is the sixth request for
22 extension and if granted the new deadline to file a joint pretrial order will be July 15, 2024.
23 This request is not made for the purpose of causing undue delay and prejudice. The parties
24 are acting in good faith to get this case resolved by continuing their settlement negotiations.

1 On May 29, 2024, Plaintiff extended a counteroffer to the Defendants, which the
2 Defendants need time to evaluate. Considering the Court’s order limiting Plaintiff ’s
3 damages to the amount of her administrative claim (ECF No. 25), the parties believe that
4 they will be able to reach a settlement in this case. For the foregoing reasons, the parties
5 request that the Court extend the deadline for the joint pretrial order to July 15, 2024.
6

Respectfully submitted this 31st day of May 2024.
