Re:

Adamson v. Emigrant Savings Bank, et al.
Civil Action No.: 24 – CV – 6524 (LGS)

Hon. Lorna G. Schofield:
I represent the Plaintiff in the referenced action.
I respectfully request that this Court extend the date by which the parties are to file their
pre-conference materials, which is currently March 12, 2025 [see DN 14]. I also request an
adjournment of the initial pre-trial conference, currently scheduled for March 19, 2025 [Id].
Motivating this request is the fact that the Defendant Emigrant Savings Bank (“ESB”)
was served with the summons and complaint on February 25, 2025, and therefore are required to
answer by March 17, 2025 [see DN 19]. 1 Furthermore, counsel for ESB has yet to appear in this
action.
Respectfully submitted,

Ian F. Wallace

The notice generated by the ECF system incorrectly indicates that Defendant was served on
February 25, 2024, which is obviously in error.
