Re:

Weir v. Aerpio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. et al., No. 1:21-cv-06456-JPC (S.D.N.Y.) Request for Adjournment of Initial Pretrial Conference

Dear Judge Cronan:
We represent all Defendants in the above-referenced private securities lawsuit. Defendants respectfully
request adjournment of the September 14, 2021 (12:00 p.m.) initial pretrial conference in this matter, as
well as the September 7, 2021 deadline to file a joint letter and proposed case management plan.
Defendants have not yet been served with the complaint. If and when they are served, Defendants intend
to file a pre-motion letter seeking leave to file a motion to dismiss the complaint in full, in which case the
parties will discuss a proposed briefing schedule for such a motion. In light of the incipient nature of this
case and contemplated next steps, Defendants request that the initial conference be adjourned.
All parties consent to this request for adjournment. This is the first request for adjournment from any
party in this matter. Defendants are filing a similar request in the related case also scheduled for a
conference on September 14, Komurke v. Aerpio Pharmaceuticals, et al., No. 1:21-cv-05686-JPC
(S.D.N.Y.).
Wherefore, Defendants request that the Court adjourn the initial pretrial conference in this matter.
Respectfully Submitted,
/s/ Caroline H. Bullerjahn
Caroline H. Bullerjahn
Counsel for Defendants

Counsel of record (by ECF)

The initial pretrial conference, proposed case
