STIPULATION AND ORDER TO ALLOW RENOTING OF PENDING MOTION TO COMPEL
Plaintiffs,
v.
ASBESTOS CORPORATION, LTD., et al.,

Defendants.

Currently pending is Plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel IMO Industries, Inc.’s Discovery
19
Responses (ECF 73), which is noted for consideration for February 2, 2018. The noting
20
21
22
date is in accord with the Court’s Minute Order Setting Trial Date & Related Dates (ECF
39), which requires all motions related to discovery to be noted for consideration no later
than the Friday before the close of discovery. (Discovery is to be completed by February
23

4, 2018. Id.)
Plaintiffs and defendant IMO Industries, Inc. (“IMO”) have agreed in principal upon
terms of a settlement of this matter, but IMO requires additional time to obtain necessary
STIPULATION AND ORDER TO ALLOW RE-NOTING
OF PENDING MOTION TO COMPEL - 1 of 3

approvals in order to confirm those arrangements (but does not expect difficulty doing
so), which then will allow the parties to withdraw this motion. Therefore, rather than
withdrawing or striking plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel, plaintiffs and IMO request that the
4

Court allow a continuance of the noting date of plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel, from
February 2, 2018 to February 16, 2018, so that the motion remains pending in the event
7
the parties are not able to confirm arrangements for a settlement in the interim. Counsel
8
for the parties believe that it is very likely that they will be able to confirm arrangements
9
for a settlement and strike pending motions prior to the extended noting date. Plaintiffs
10
and IMO therefore jointly request that the Court allow a brief continuance of this motion,
11
by allowing it to be re-noted for consideration for Friday, February 16, 2018.
