WOODS CROSS CITY, a Utah municipal corporation; DANIEL DAVIS, an individual, Defendants.

Before the court is Plaintiffs' Motion to Continue Trial and Request for Scheduling Conference. 1 Plaintiffs seek expedited review because the trial in this case is set for April 11-15. Plaintiffs state that they "have just learned that an excessive force expert who they designated is currently hospitalized with a severe injury. At this time, he is unable to respond to requests for further information regarding his availability. He has indicated that the extent of his stay and rehabilitation are likely to be extensive and that he is likely to have little or no ability to communicate with us during this time." 2 Defendants do not oppose Plaintiffs' motion. Accordingly, for good cause shown, the court GRANTS Plaintiffs' Motion to Continue Trial. It is FURTHER ORDERED that the parties in this case are to confer with each other and submit a new proposed stipulated schedule with all necessary dates, including a date by which this case will be ready for trial, to the court by April 1, 2011. The court will then reschedule the
