Re: J.L., et al. v. NYC Dep’t of Education, et ano.,
No. 17-CV-7150 (PAC) (KHP)

10/10/2023

Your Honor:
I am the Assistant Corporation Counsel in the Office of the Corporation Counsel of
the City of New York assigned to represent Defendants New York City Department of Education
(“DOE”) and DOE Chancellor David C. Banks in the above-referenced matter, in which Plaintiffs,
parents on behalf of three students, allege that their rights were violated due to alleged systemic
delays in providing coordinated nursing, transportation, and porter services.
I write to respectfully request an extension of time, from October 11, 2023 until
October 17, 2023, for the parties to submit their Settlement Conference Summary Report and preconference submissions, in advance of the settlement conference scheduled for October 18, 2023,
at 10:00 a.m. I apologize to the Court for the lateness of this request in light of Your Honor’s
Individual Rules of Practice. Plaintiffs consent to this request, and this is the first request for an
extension.
The reason for the requested enlargement is due to professional obligations in this
and other matters, primarily consisting of drafting Defendants’ cross-motion for summary
judgment and opposition to Plaintiffs’ motion in this matter, which is due to be filed later this week
on October 13, 2023. The brief extension of time will enable me to complete the pre-conference
submissions.

I thank the Court for its consideration of the within request.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/
Philip S. Frank
Assistant Corporation Counsel
