JOINT STIPULATION AND ORDER TO MODIFY INITIAL PRETRIAL SCHEDULING ORDER AND ORDER
Troy L. Nunley United States District Judge
Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 143(a)(1) and subject to the Court's approval, the parties hereto jointly stipulate to further modify the Pretrial Scheduling Order filed December 1, 2021, (ECF 3) and the Court's prior modification of the Scheduling Order (ECF 18) as detailed below. This is the second request to modify the schedule.
This stipulation is being made because, due to a calendaring mistake on the part of Defendant, Defendant requires additional time to prepare its Rule 26 expert witness disclosure and accompanying reports. The parties met and conferred regarding the additional extension and agree that a two-week extension of the present disclosure dates would facilitate expert discovery in this case while continuing to move the case forward. There is no trial date or pre-trial conference date set in this matter. There will be no inconvenience to the Court if this stipulation is granted.
Accordingly, the parties stipulate and agree to the following amendments in the scheduling order:
| Event | Current Deadline | New Proposed Deadline |
| Disclosure of Experts | May 1, 2023 | May 15, 2023 |
| Supplemental Disclosure of Experts | May 22, 2023 | June 5, 2023 |
| Expert Discovery Cut Off | 60 days after the expert's disclosure or 60 days after the Court's ruling on defendant's motion for summary judgment, whichever is later |
The parties agree that all other matters contained in the Initial Pretrial Scheduling Order remain unchanged.
ORDER
PURSUANT TO STIPULATION, IT IS SO ORDERED.
