Letter Motion Seeking Adjournment

Dear Judge Furman:
The parties in the above-referenced action jointly submit this letter to respectfully request
that the Court adjourn by 30 days: (i) the initial pre-trial conference currently set for October 11,
2023 (and the joint preconference letter and proposed Case Management Order submission due
on October 5, 2023 in connection with the same); (ii) defendants’ October 16, 2023 deadline to
answer the Second Amended Complaint; and (iii) plaintiff’s October 23, 2023 deadline to answer
or move with respect to defendant Goldstrom’s counterclaim.
The initial pre-trial conference is the only scheduled appearance before the Court. This is
the parties’ first request to adjourn the initial pre-trial conference and the submission due in
connection with the same. It is defendants’ second request to extend their time to answer the
Second Amended Complaint; on August 25, 2023, the Court granted defendants’ request to
extend their time to answer by 31 days. Dkt. 242. It is plaintiff’s first request to extend his time
to respond to Goldstrom’s counterclaim.
Respectfully submitted,
