The Court ordered the parties, after these thirty days, to apprise the Court of their progress and ask for an extension if necessary. Id.

Those thirty days have passed, and the parties submitted a Joint Status Report in Response to Court Order of August 31, 2012. Oct. 1, 2012, ECF No. 124. The Report states: "The parties are continuing to meet and confer regarding these and other issues and respectfully request the Court to permit the parties an additional week - i.e., until Tuesday, October 9, 2012 -to conclude their discussions and apprise the Court of their proposals for future proceedings in this action." Id.
