*CORRECTED LETTER*
Dear Magistrate Wang:
I am a Special Assistant Corporation Counsel in the office of Corporation Counsel, the
Hon. Sylvia O. Hinds-Radix, attorney for Defendant in the above-referenced action, wherein
Plaintiff seeks solely attorney’s! fees, costs and expenses for legal work on an administrative
hearing under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, 20 U.S.C. § 1400, et seq.
(“"IDEA”), as well as for this action.

I write to respectfully request that the Court adjourn the January 25, 2023 conference sine
die, and permit the parties to submit a status letter by March 27, 2023, either informing the Court
of settlement or proposing a briefing schedule. This is a simple fees matter, and liability is not in
dispute. This is the first request to adjourn the initial conference sine die. Plaintiff consents to
this requests.

Accordingly, Defendant respectfully requests that the initial conference scheduled for
January 25, 2023 be adjourned sine die, and that the parties submit a briefing schedule no later
than March 27, 2023, in the event that the parties cannot settle this matter.

Thank you for considering these requests.
