STIPULATION AND PROPOSED ORDER EXTENDING TIME TO COMPLETE EARLY NEUTRAL EVALUATION
WHEREAS, on November 18, 2005, the Court held a case management conference in this action, and ordered Plaintiff EDO Reconnaissance and Surveillance Systems, Inc. ("EDO RSS") and Defendant Phoenix Logistics, Inc. (" PLI") to complete an Early Neutral Evaluation on or before March 17, 2006;
WHEREAS, on December 20, 2005, the Alternative Dispute Resolution Clerk appointed Paul A. Renne, Esq. as the Early Neutral Evaluation Evaluator;
WHEREAS, on January 27, 2006, Mr. Renne held a telephone conference to discuss scheduling of the Early Neutral Evaluation and learned that the parties have been arbitrating another dispute and are awaiting a final arbitration award, which is due by March 2, 2006. Mr. Renne scheduled the Early Neutral Evaluation for March 3, 2006, at 9:00 a.m., but stated that the Early Neutral Evaluation would likely be more productive if it occurred after the parties have resolved anticipated motions relating to the legal impact of the final arbitration award on this action and a related state court action. Accordingly, Mr. Renne suggested that the parties seek an Order extending the deadline to complete the Early Neutral Evaluation, and the parties agreed to do so.
WHEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between Plaintiff EDO Reconnaissance and Surveillance Systems, Inc. and Defendants Phoenix Logistics, Inc. that the deadline to complete an Early Neutral Evaluation in the above-captioned action is extended from March 17, 2006 to May 17, 2006.
SO STIPULATED:
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that that the deadline to complete an Early Neutral Evaluation in the above-captioned action is extended from March 17, 2006 to May 17, 2006.
SO ORDERED:
