LORETTA A. PRESKA, U.S.D.J.
Honorable Loretta A. Preska
United States District Court for the Southern District of New York
Daniel Patrick Moynihan United States Courthouse
500 Pearl Street
New York, N.Y. 10007
Re:
Milburn, et al. v. Dogin, et al., No. 79 Civ. 5077 (LAP) (S.D.N.Y.)
Dear Judge Preska:
Plaintiffs write to update the Court on the parties’ recent discussions about
discovery in this matter and to respectfully request, on behalf of the parties, that the Court enter
an amended Scheduling Order reflecting the parties’ agreed-upon discovery and casemanagement deadlines, as set out below. In light of the parties’ agreement, Plaintiffs also
accordingly withdraw their October 11 letter motion for a discovery conference, Dkt. 675.
The parties have had further discussions following the filing of Plaintiffs’ October
11 letter motion. Based upon these discussions, it is clear that Defendants are not able to reach
substantial completion of document production relating to the Unit for the Physically Disabled
Case 1:79-cv-05077-LAP Document 679 Filed 10/15/21 Page 2 of 2
Honorable Loretta A. Preska

(“UPD”) by the current deadline of today, October 15, see Dkts. 655, 657. Defendants’
incomplete production makes it impossible for Plaintiffs to take depositions by the October 29
deadline for UPD-related fact discovery, and deposition scheduling has also been made
considerably more difficult by the current COVID outbreak at Green Haven. The parties
therefore have agreed to an approximately two-week extension of the remaining discovery and
case-management deadlines, so as to allow document production to be completed consistent with
the parties’ discussions and upon Defendants’ representation that such an extension is sufficient
for their fulfillment of their discovery obligations. Such an extension will also allow depositions
to take place at a time when the current COVID outbreak at Green Haven will hopefully no
longer be an obstacle.
The parties accordingly propose the below modified schedule for discovery
relating to the UPD and respectfully request that the Court enter an amended Scheduling Order
reflecting these deadlines:
•
Substantial completion of document production:
October 29.
•
Close of UPD-related fact discovery:
November 17.
•
Submission of opening expert reports:
November 24.
•
Submission of rebuttal expert reports:
December 10.
•
Close of UPD-related expert discovery:
December 17.
•
Submission of Plaintiffs’ opposition brief to Defendants’ Motion to
Terminate concerning the issues related to the UPD: December 23.
•
Submission of Defendants’ reply brief to Plaintiffs’ Opposition to
Defendants’ Motion to terminate:
January 7, 2022.
The parties also respectfully request that, if the Court’s schedule allows it, a
hearing be set for the week of January 10, 2022.
The parties thank the Court for its attention to this case and are available at the
Court’s convenience.
Respectfully submitted,
