On February 12, 2013, Defendants Bekins Van Lines, LLC and Estate of Myron Bojszuk ("Bojszuk" or collectively "Defendants") filed a motion to continue/extend discovery deadline as to certain matters and an ex parte application to shorten time to hear the motion; the Court granted the ex parte application. (Docs. 47-49.) On February 20, 2013, Plaintiffs William Wright and Joanne Wright ("Plaintiffs") filed an opposition to the motion, and on February 22, 2013, Defendants filed a reply. (Docs. 50, 51.) A hearing on the motion was held on February 27, 2013, before Magistrate Judge Sheila K. Oberto.
At the hearing, the Court determined that good cause existed to grant Defendants' motion and to extend the discovery deadlines as to certain matters for the reasons set forth on the record.
Accordingly, the schedule is modified as follows:
