Re:

Suzanne Lucas v. Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company
Case No.: 1:24-cv-7561(VEC)

Dear Judge Caproni:
This office represents the Defendant Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company
(“Defendant”) in the above-referenced matter. We write pursuant to Rule 2(C) of Your Honor’s
Individual Practices in Civil Cases to respectfully request an adjournment of the Initial Pretrial
Conference scheduled for December 13, 2024. (Doc. No. 7). The Defendant requests the
adjournment because its deadline to respond to the Complaint is also on December 13, 2024 and
Defendant would prefer to adjourn the conference to a date after it has responded to the
Complaint. Counsel for the parties conferred and propose the following dates for the Initial
Pretrial Conference: December 26th or 30th. This is Defendant’s first request for an adjournment
of the Initial Pretrial Conference in this matter and Plaintiff consents to the requested
adjournment.
I appreciate your attention to this matter.
Respectfully submitted,

Matthew P. Mazzola
