APPLICATION BY MUTUAL CONSENT OF THE PLAINTIFF AND DEFENDANTS FOR AN ORDER EXTENDING THE TIME WITHIN WHICH THE PARTIES MAY FILE AND SERVE DISPOSITIVE MOTIONS
Honorable Morrison C. England, Jr. Judge
Plaintiff Sai Pola and Defendants Mahender Rao and Srinivas Rao hereby move the Court for an order extending the time within which they can file and serve their dispositive motions.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The parties filed a joint stipulation and proposed order modifying the initial pretrial scheduling order on January 30, 2023. The parties stipulated that non-expert discovery should be completed by November 30, 2023, and are currently busy with discovery and production of documents. The parties stipulated all non-discovery motions and dispositive motions shall be filed no later than November 30, 2023, and now wish to extend the deadline to January 31, 2024, for non-discovery motions and dispositive motions, and to extend the deadline to file the Joint Notice of Trial Readiness to March 31, 2024. The parties believe that this modification will facilitate settlement discussions as well as aid in the preparation for trial if the matter is not settled.
CONCLUSION
Based on the forgoing the parties respectfully request the Court enter an order extending the time the parties may file and serve non-discovery motions and dispositive motions to January 31, 2024 and the deadline to file the Joint Notice of Trial Readiness to March 31, 2024.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
