RECITALS
1. On April 29, 2013, all parties to this action filed a Joint Pre-trial Scheduling Conference Status Report in which the parties stipulated to a May 27, 2013 due date for the Fed. R. Civ. Proc. 26(a)(1) Initial Disclosure Exchange ("Initial Disclosures"); and a June 12, 2013 due date for the exchange of documents.
2. The Pre-trial Scheduling Conference was held in chambers on May 13, 2013, at which time the Court ordered that (1) a further status conference is set for August 5, 2013; and (2) the parties must file an updated status report 14 days prior to the conference. No further dates were set by the Court.
3. Following the Pre-trial Scheduling Conference, the May 27, 2013 Initial Disclosure exchange and the June 12, 2013 documents exchange deadlines were operative dates as previously agreed by the parties in the Joint Pre-trial Scheduling Conference Status Report. Because May 27, 2013 was a federal holiday, on or about May 14, 2013 the parties agreed to extend the Initial Disclosure due date to May 28, 2013.
