December 14, 2007, be continued to January 31, 2008;

(3) The expert discovery cut-off date, currently set for February 14, 2008, is 

continued to February 22, 2008. 

Good cause exists for a continuance of the expert designation date and disclosure of 

reports in this case based on the following: 

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(a)(2)(B) and Rule 26 (a)(4)(A) provide that the 

parties may stipulate to reschedule the expert discovery cut off, and expert depositions must be 

taken after disclosure of expert reports. Health care providers that have rendered opinions 

relative to this matter will need to be deposed before the various experts in this case can prepare 

their reports. Those depositions are not currently scheduled because the parties need to first 

receive a full and complete copy of the entire medical records from Natividad Hospital which 

did not provide a complete record. In addition, Defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment 

will be heard February 8, 2008, and it will be beneficial to the parties to have a determination of 

that hearing before the expense of expert depositions. 

There have been no modifications to the Court’s Scheduling Order in this case. Other 

than continuing the dates that are subject to the stipulation, the requested continuance will have 

no impact on the schedule for the case.
