Re: 1:20-cv-9730-PGG-JLC
Brown v. Kerry Inc.

This office represents the Plaintiff. In accordance with your Honor’s Individual Practices,
Rule I(E), Plaintiff requests an adjournment of the initial conference and extension of time for
submission of the joint letter and case management plan. ECF No. 5, November 20, 2020.
The original initial conference date is Thursday, February 25, 2021 at 10:15 AM with the
joint letter and case management plan to be submitted by Thursday, February 18, 2021. Defendant
waived service of the summons on February 10, 2021 and its answer or response to the complaint
is due on Monday, April 12, 2021. ECF No. 6.
The proposed new date for the initial conference is Thursday, April 22, 2021 with the joint
letter and case management plan submitted no later than Thursday, April 15, 2021. Plaintiff sent a
draft of this letter request to Defendant on the evening of February 12, 2021 but has not heard
back. However, given the nature of this request – to conform the scheduling dates to coincide with
Defendant’s deadline to answer or respond, there is no reason to expect Defendant would object,
given that it is using this time to evaluate this action.
There have been no previous requests for an adjournment of the conference and extension
of time for submission of the joint letter. No prior request was granted or denied. The requested
adjournment and extension do not affect any other scheduled dates. The request is submitted at
least 48 hours prior to the date by which the parties are required to submit the joint letter. Thank
you.
