Re:

Ceara v. Deacon, 13-cv-6023
Adjournment of Status Conference

Dear Judge Karas:
This office was approached to serve as pro bono counsel to Plaintiff, Rafael Ceara, in the
above-referenced matter. Currently, a status conference is scheduled with the Court on May 13,
2021 at 11:00am. (Dkt. No. 143.)
Yesterday, we arranged a counsel call with the Plaintiff on May 14, 2021 at 9:30am. That
was the earliest available counsel call at Green Haven Correctional Facility where Plaintiff is
currently housed. We also sent via priority mail a letter of introduction as well as the relevant
releases. If Plaintiff chooses to proceed with our representation, we should be able to arrange
access to his medical records and related documents from Defendants in quick order. Given the
need to speak with our potential client and review the relevant records, we respectfully request an
adjournment of thirty (30) days. We believe this adjournment will allow us the time to arrange
pro bono representation and review the record so we will be in a position to ably represent Plaintiff
at any subsequent settlement conference.
I have communicated with Messrs. Horan and Shevlin at the Attorney General’s Office
and they have consented to the adjournment. This office is holding off on filing of a Notice of
Appearance until we have been retained by Plaintiff, so we would appreciate if any resulting order
could be communicated to us via email at [e-mail] as well as via ECF.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Amy Jane Agnew

Granted. The Court will hold a status conference
on Friday, June 18, 2021 at 12:00 P.M.
