STIPULATION TO CONTINUE DATE FOR
HEARINGS ON MOTION IN LIMINE AND
PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR
RECONSIDERATION TO DECEMBER 19,
2011, AND TO MAINTAIN ALL OTHER
DATES, INCLUDING TRIAL DATE;
ORDER THERETO
Plaintiff Roslyn McCoy, and Defendant John M. McHugh, Secretary of the Army ("Secretary"), through their respective counsel, hereby respectfully submit the following stipulation and request to modify the pretrial schedule.
RECITALS
1 By Order signed October 7, 2011, this Court set the hearing on any motions in limine and for Plaintiff's Motion for Reconsideration of the Court's Order Granting In Part the Secretary's Motion for Summary Judgment for December 5, 2011 at 10:00 a.m.. The dates for filing the motions in limine are based on the hearing date of December 5, 2011. The Court also set a trial date of March 20, 2012, and a settlement conference before Magistrate Judge Dale A. Drozd for January 12, 2012.
2. Subsequent to the setting of these dates, on October 17, 2011, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals set oral argument in the case of United States v. Tubbs, No. 09-10149, for December 5, 2011 at 9:00 .a.m., in San Francisco, California. The undersigned counsel for the Secretary is also counsel for the United States in Tubbs, authored the answering brief, and will be presenting argument.
3. Accordingly, counsel for the Secretary currently has an unforeseen scheduling conflict for December 5, 2011. To accommodate this conflict, Plaintiff's counsel have graciously agreed to jointly request the Court continue the hearing date in this case to December 19, 2011, which is the next available law and motion date on the Court's calendar. The parties do not wish to change the trial date or any other dates, and do not believe moving the hearing date will affect any further dates set by the Court.
STIPULATION AND REQUEST
Based on the foregoing, the parties hereby stipulate and request the following:
1. The hearing on any motions in limine as well as on Plaintiff's Motion for Reconsideration [DE 91], set for December 5, 2011 at 10:00 a.m., be continued to December 19, 2011, at 10:00 a.m., and the dates for the submission of the parties' motions in limine be continued consistent with that date.
2. All other dates shall remain as set by the Court's October 7 Order.
IT IS SO STIPULATED.
