MINUTE ORDER
Entered by Michael E. Hegarty , United States Magistrate Judge, on March 8, 2012.
The Joint Motion to Amend Scheduling Order [filed March 7, 2012; docket #33] is granted in part and denied in part. The parties have not provided sufficient justification for the four-month extensions they request.

Deadline to designate rebuttal experts: June 1, 2012
Discovery cutoff: July 2, 2012
Dispositive motions deadline: August 1, 2012
In addition, the Court notes that no trial date has been set in this case. In accordance with Judge Jackson's Practice Standards, which provide that a trial date will generally be set at the scheduling conference, the Court directs the parties to contact Judge Jackson's chambers within thirty (30) days to obtain a trial date consistent with the revised deadlines.
