Designation of Experts November 4, 2005

Designation of Expert - Rebuttal December 2, 2005

Expert Discovery Cut-off December 23, 2005

The parties further agree that any non-expert depositions noticed by November 17, 2005 may be 

completed by December 22, 2005, if the parties are not able to complete the noticed depositions by the 

close of non-expert discovery. 

This stipulation was made for the following reasons: Depositions were set within the original 

discovery cut-off but in order to accommodate all counsels’ vacation and trial schedules it was agreed 

they could be reset to later dates; it was more cost efficient to file various dispositive motions first in

order to narrow or resolve issues in the case before arranging depositions in three different cities that are 

geographically distant to one or more counsel; the deposition of the witnesses will not cause a delay in the 

trial to the best of counsel’s knowledge and may result in alleviating the problem of causing one or more 

witnesses to travel across country in order to testify at trial.
