Re:

Range, Jr. v. BLDG 03 LLC et al., Civil Action No. 1:19-cv-05276-VEC

Dear Judge Caproni:
This Firm represents Defendants BLDG 03 LLC (“BLDG”) and 475 Soho, LLC
(“475 Soho”) (collectively with BLDG, “Defendants”) in the above-referenced matter. We
write, jointly with Plaintiff King Range, Jr. (“Plaintiff”), to respectfully request a continued
stay of forty-five (45) additional days, up to and including January 26, 2023, to allow the
parties to complete private mediation.
By way of background, on October 13, 2022, the parties submitted a joint status
letter to the Court in connection with the accessibility-related alterations to the exterior
entrance and interior areas of the Property. In that correspondence, they also requested
that the Court continue to stay the matter for sixty (60) additional days, up to and including
December 12, 2022, to allow the parties to arrange for and complete private mediation.
(ECF No. 81.) The Court granted the parties’ request on October 13, 2022. (ECF No.
82.)
Since the parties last corresponded with the Court, they have conferred and
agreed to the assignment of Mediator Amanda Fugazy in this matter. The parties further
conducted a pre-mediation telephone conference on November 9, 2022 with the
Mediator. However, based on the Mediator’s availability through the next several months,
the earliest timeframe for the mediation session would be January 2023. The parties
have accordingly scheduled the mediation for January 12, 2023.
Therefore, the parties respectfully request that, in order to facilitate the mediation
process, the Court continue the stay for an additional forty-five (45) days, up to and
including January 26, 2023. The parties will advise the Court on or before this date
whether the matter has been resolved.
