Re:
Harrington Global Opportunity Fund, Ltd., v. CIBC World
Markets Corp. et al.
Case No. 21-cv-00761 (LGS)
Dear Judge Schofield:
This firm represents Plaintiff Harrington Global Opportunity Fund, Ltd. (“Plaintiff”), in
the above captioned action. I write jointly on behalf of Plaintiff and with the consent of
Defendants, pursuant to Rule I.B.2 of the Court’s Individual Rules of Practice, to request
approval of a schedule wherein Plaintiff will amend its complaint and Defendants will answer,
move, or otherwise respond to the Amended Complaint.
Pursuant to the Court’s Order of February 22, 2021 (the “Order”), Defendants were
directed to file a pre-motion letter in support of a motion to dismiss in accordance with the
Court’s Individual Rules. Defendants’ pre-motion letter was filed on March 25, 2021. [Dkt 49.]
Pursuant to the Order, by April 1, 2021, Plaintiff is to file a response to Defendants’ pre-motion
letter and the parties are also required to file a joint letter proposing a schedule for Defendants to
answer, move, or otherwise respond to the Complaint and a Joint Civil Management Plan and
Scheduling Order. [Dkt. 16.] A telephonic conference is scheduled for April 8, 2021. [Dkt. 14.]
After receiving Defendants’ joint pre-motion letter, Plaintiff has elected to amend its
Complaint. As a result, the parties jointly request approval of the following schedule:
{1329379.1 }
1. Plaintiff shall serve its Amended Complaint on or before May 17, 2021;
2. Defendants shall serve their motion to dismiss within 60 days after being served with
Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint;
3. Plaintiff shall serve its opposition to Defendants’ motion to dismiss within 60 days
after service of Defendants’ motion;
4. Defendants shall serve their reply to Plaintiff’s opposition within 30 days after service
of Plaintiff’s opposition.
This is the first request by Plaintiff to amend its Complaint and for a briefing schedule of
Defendants’ motion to dismiss Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint.
We respectfully thank the Court for considering this joint request.
Respectfully submitted,
Warshaw Burstein, LLP
