MINUTE ORDER
Entered by Michael E. Hegarty , United States Magistrate Judge, on March 26, 2013.
Pending before the Court are Zurich American Insurance Company's and American Zurich Insurance Company's Unopposed Motion for Extension of Discovery Cutoff [filed March 25, 2013; docket #55] ("the Zurich Defendants' Motion") and Plaintiffs' Opposed Motion to Modify Scheduling Order to Extend Deadline for Filing Dispositive Motions, Including Motions for Summary Judgment [filed March 25, 2013; docket #57] ("Plaintiffs' Motion"). For good cause shown, Plaintiffs' Motion is granted and the Zurich Defendants' Motion is granted in part and denied in part as follows.
In light of the Final Pretrial/Trial Preparation Conference scheduled before Judge Blackburn on July 26, 2013, the Zurich Defendants' proposal to extend discovery through and including May 3, 2013, is unworkable. However, the Court finds good cause to extend both the discovery cut-off and the dispositive motions deadline through and including April 15, 2013.
