Re: Molina, et al. v. Huaxcuaxtla Restaurant Corp., et al., No. 1:20-cv-2481-LGS-RWL
Dear Judge Schofield:
We represent Plaintiffs in the above-referenced action and write pursuant to Section I(B)(2)
of Your Honor’s Individual Rules and Procedures for Civil Cases, to respectfully request an
adjournment of the May 21, 2020 Initial Conference, as set forth in Your Honor’s April 8, 2020
Order. See ECF No. 5.
Due to the outbreak of COVID-19 and the stay-at-home order currently in effect throughout
New York State, Plaintiffs have experienced difficulties in serving Defendants their Summons and
Complaint. Pursuant to Federal Rule 4(m), Plaintiffs have until June 18, 2020 to serve Defendants.
Following numerous conversations with Plaintiffs’ process server, we are confident service can be
accomplished within the next 60 days, before June 18, 2020.
In an effort to promote judicial efficiency, and to allow the parties to confer and prepare a
joint letter prior to the Initial Conference, Plaintiff respectfully requests an extension of 90 days
from May 21, 2020 to August 19, 2020, for the parties’ initial conference. This is Plaintiffs’ first
request for an adjournment of the Initial Conference.
We thank Your Honor for the Court’s time and attention to this matter.
Respectfully submitted,

Innessa M. Huot
Application GRANTED in part. The initial pretrial conference scheduled for May 21, 2020, is adjourned
to July 23, 2020, at 10:50 a.m. The joint conference materials are due July 16, 2020.
