Rilton Harry v. City of New York, et al.

Honorable George B. Daniels United States District Judge.

The conference on October 20, 2021 is adjourned to February 9, 2022 at 9:45 a.m.

Dear Judge Daniels:

This firm represents Plaintiff Rilton Harry, in connection with the above referenced matter. In accordance with the Court's October 13, 2021 directive for a status report as to discovery, I write on behalf of the parties to respectfully advise the Court that the parties have yet to complete paper discovery and are presently in the process of scheduling depositions. On October 12, 2021, the plaintiff submitted a letter of the same date seeking a pre-motion discovery conference concerning the paper discovery issues outlined in his said letter. (Docket No. 33.) However, the parties have since conferred, and have now resolved all outstanding paper discovery issues with the defendants indicating that they would need about 30 days to produce certain outstanding disclosures. Accordingly, the plaintiff hereby withdraws said motion for a discovery conference. Because the parties had planned to raise the discovery issues at the Conference presently scheduled for October 20, 2021, at 9:30 a.m., and since the parties do not have any other issues to raise before the Court, the parties respectfully request that the Court adjourn the Conference presently scheduled for October 20, 2021, at 9:30 a.m., to such date and time as the Court may set in its discretion.

Further, given that the parties have yet to complete discovery, the parties respectfully request that the Court extend the October 28, 2021 discovery deadline to February 25, 2022. The requested extension is necessary to afford the parties sufficient time - particularly in light of the upcoming holiday period and other litigation commitments of counsel - to complete paper discovery and schedule and complete approximately five (5) party and approximately four (4) non-party depositions.

Thank you for your time and consideration of the parties' request(s).

Respectfully Submitted,

Honorable George B. Daniels United States District Judge.
