retain the current hearing date, as follows:

1. The deadline for Plaintiffs’ opposition to Defendants’ motion for summary judgment

was Friday, April 14, 2006. On Thursday, April 13, 2006, Plaintiffs’ counsel’s mother was rushed to

the hospital on an emergency basis, requiring Ms. Dickson’s attendance at the hospital on both

Thursday and Friday, April 13 - 14, 2006. This prevented Ms. Dickson from completing Plaintiffs’

opposition to the summary judgment motion. Ms. Dickson contacted Paul Lusky, defense counsel,

informed him of the emergency, and requested a brief extension of the deadline for fling an

opposition until Wednesday, April 19, 2006. 

2. Defense counsel agreed to the extension to Wednesday, April 19th for the opposition

as long as Plaintiffs’ counsel would agree that Defendants’ reply could be extended a like number of

days, i.e., until Wednesday, April 26, 2006. Plaintiff agreed to such an extension.

3. The parties desire, if at all possible, to retain the current hearing date for the summary

judgment motion, that is May 5, 2006 at 9:00 a.m.
