STIPULATION AND ORDER TO EXTEND TIME FOR PARTIES TO SUBMIT JOINT PRETRIAL ORDER
(FIRST REQUEST)
RICHARD F. BOULWARE, II UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Plaintiff Rashaud Blandburg (“Plaintiff”), and Defendant Advanced Lighting and Electric, Inc. (“Advanced Lighting”), through their respective attorneys of record, stipulate to, and agree upon, a minor extension of the deadline to submit a joint pretrial order, as follows.
On February 3, 2022, Plaintiff filed his Motion for Partial Summary Judgment. [ECF 58], which was opposed by Advanced Lighting. Recently, oral argument took place on the matter. Approximately, one month ago, on September 28, 2022, this Court entered its Order denying Plaintiff's Motion for Partial Summary Judgment. [ECF 75].
Early last week, Plaintiff's counsel had a family emergency that has prevented her from meeting and conferring with defense counsel in regard to the joint pretrial order. To give the parties sufficient time to meet and confer to finalize the joint pretrial order, the parties hereby stipulate and agree the parties shall have 30 additional days to file their joint pretrial order, such that the new deadline to file the joint pretrial order shall be November 28, 2022.
Plaintiff's counsel's on-going family emergency similarly delayed approval of this proposed stipulation constituting good cause for the approximately one court day delay in submitting this request.
This is the first request to extend the joint pretrial order deadline, and only the third request to extend discovery / case deadlines, and is not made for purposes of undue delay.
ORDER
IT IS SO ORDERED:
