MAC E. FREEMAN, et al., Plaintiffs, v. C. R. BARD, INC., et al., Defendants.
ORDER GRANTING JOINT STIPULATION TO CONTINUE DEADLINES
(DOC. 27)
BARBARA A. MCAULIFFE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
On July 6, 2021, the parties filed a joint stipulation requesting that all pending deadlines in this case be extended sixty (60) days. (Doc. 27.) The parties explain that counsel for Defendants C.R. Bard, Inc. and Bard Peripheral Vascular, Inc. also represent Defendants in two other matters, one set for trial beginning July 6, 2021, which is expected to last for two to three weeks, and one set for trial beginning August 2, 2021, which is expected to last three to four weeks. The parties therefore assert that extension of the discovery deadlines in this action is necessary to prevent prejudice to the parties. (Id.)
Having considered the parties' stipulation, and good cause appearing, the request for an extension of the pending pre-trial deadlines is GRANTED. The pending deadlines in the Court's Scheduling Conference Order are CONTINUED as follows:
| Plaintiffs' Expert Disclosure: | December 3, 2021 |
| Defendants' Expert Disclosure: | January 3, 2022 |
