Re: M.G., et al. v. N.Y. City Dep’t of Educ., et al.
13 Civ. 4639 (SHS) (RWL)
Dear Judge Lehrburger:
I am an Assistant Corporation Counsel in the Office of the Corporation Counsel
assigned to represent the City Defendants in the above-referenced case. I write jointly with
Plaintiffs’ counsel to respectfully request a short extension of time for Plaintiffs and the City
Defendants to submit their next status report.
Pursuant to the Court’s Order dated November 9, 2020, the Plaintiffs and the City
Defendants are due to submit a status letter regarding discovery, the meet and confer process,
and related issues by today, December 7, 2020. We respectfully request an additional week, or
until December 14, 2020, to submit the status letter. The parties have met and conferred several
times since their last letter to the Court, including for several hours last week. While the parties
discussed this letter during their most session on Friday afternoon, additional time is needed to
further discuss the various issues that one or both parties may wish to present to the Court. Also,
the press of other time-sensitive matters for both Plaintiffs’ and City Defendants’ counsel made it
impossible to continue those discussions today. We will hold additional meet and confer
discussions this week and expect to fully update the Court thereafter.
This is the first request to extend this particular deadline, and as noted, Plaintiffs
join in the request.

Respectfully submitted,
