Re:

Allianz Global Investors GmbH, et al. v. Bank of America Corp., et al.,
No. 18 Civ. 10364 (LGS) (SDA) (S.D.N.Y. 2018)

Dear Judge Aaron:
Under Section I.D. of the Court’s Individual Practices, we write on behalf of
Plaintiffs and Defendants Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs (the “Parties”) regarding the
deadline set by the Court in its May 7, 2021 order, Dkt. 827, and extended to today in the Court’s
May 26, 2021 order, Dkt. 836.
The Parties continue to engage in meet and confer discussions regarding the
review of Morgan Stanley’s and Goldman Sachs’ custodian discovery. To enable the Parties
additional time to conduct these discussions and attempt to resolve any potential disputes, the
Parties respectfully request that the Court extend the deadline to file the letters setting out
outstanding disputes relating to custodian discovery, if any, from today to Tuesday, June 8, 2021.
This is the second request for an extension of the deadline to file these joint
letters. Given that the deadline for substantial completion of document discovery for all parties
is currently October 6, 2021, the requested extension should have no impact on the overall case
schedule.
Respectfully submitted,

Request GRANTED. The deadline for Plaintiffs and Defendants Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs to submit
a joint letter setting out outstanding disputes relating to custodian discovery, if any, hereby is extended to
Tuesday, June 8, 2021. The Court notes that the October 6 date set forth in the last paragraph of this letter
is in error. The correct deadline for substantial completion of document discovery for all parties is currently
December 6, 2021 (see ECF No. 819; see also ECF No. 839). SO ORDERED.
Dated: 6/4/2021
