Re:

John Doe v. New York University; No. 20-cv-01343 (GHW)

Dear Judge Woods:
Pursuant to your Honor’s Individual Rules of Practice, Defendant New York
University (“NYU”) hereby submits this letter to request approval to adjourn the status
conference currently scheduled for May 18, 2022 (“the Conference”). (See ECF No.
59). Undersigned counsel will be participating in a trial on that same day and will be
unable to attend the Conference; accordingly, NYU requests that the Conference be
adjourned until the week of Monday, May 23, 2022.
In addition, NYU intends to request a pre-motion conference relating to a
motion for summary judgment in accordance with the Case Management Plan and Your
Honor’s Individual Rule 2(C) and proposes that the Conference could also serve as the
summary judgment pre-motion conference. Accordingly, if NYU’s request for an
adjournment of the Conference is granted, NYU requests that the current deadline for
summary judgment of June 1, 2022, be adjourned until two weeks after the Conference,
consistent with the current schedule. Counsel for Plaintiff does not object to this
request.
