Re:

Juan Solano v. City of New York, et al.
23 Civ. 3285 (PGG)

Your Honor:
I am a Senior Counsel in the Office of the Hon. Sylvia O. Hinds-Radix, Corporation
Counsel for the City of New York, and attorney for defendants City of New York and Detective
Michael Corvi (“defendants”) in the above-referenced matter. The defendants write, with
plaintiff’s consent, to respectfully request that the Court adjourn the November 30, 2023 initial
pretrial conference until December 11, 13, or 20, 2023. This is the defendants’ first such request
after the parties jointly wrote to adjourn the November 16, 2023 conference and withdraw from
Local Rule 83.10 (“the Plan”) on November 3, 2023, which was granted by the Court. See ECF
No. 16, Letter Motion, November 3, 2023; ECF No. 17, Order, November 6, 2023.
By way of background, the Court adjourned the November 16, 2023 conference
until November 30, 2023 after the parties informed the Court that the United States Attorney’s
Office in the Southern District of New York (“USAO SDNY”) might become involved in the
representation of defendant Corvi. The undersigned has a conflict on November 30, 2023 with a
previously scheduled deposition in another matter. (See Oliver Louis, et al. v. City of New York,
et al., 22-CV-7690 (RPK) (CLP) E.D.N.Y., ECF No. 25, Status Letter, October 23, 2023; ECF No.
26, Order, October 24, 2023). The parties have conferred with USAO SDNY concerning their
availability, and the defendants respectfully submit the parties will be available December 11, 13,
and 20, 2023 for a conference.
