STIPULATION & [PROPOSED] ORDER RE REVISING COURT’S SCHEDULE ORDER – CASE NO. 1:14-

CV-01377 GEB 

Plaintiffs and State Farm General Insurance Company (“State Farm”), by and through their 

respective counsel, hereby stipulate to revise the Court’s May 29, 2015 Pretrial Scheduling Order 

(Dkt. 19) as follows: 

I.

RECITALS 

1. The parties have been working diligently toward moving this case forward in an 

efficient, expeditious manner. The following deadlines are currently in place: 

 The deadline to complete initial expert witness disclosures is December 16, 2015; 

 The deadline for rebuttal expert disclosures is January 13, 2016; 

 The deadline for all discovery to be completed is April 20, 2016; 

 The deadline for hearing of dispositive motions is June 20, 2016; 

 The final pre-trial conference is August 15, 2016; 

 The trial date is November 1, 2016. 

2. Despite the parties’ diligent efforts and cooperation to complete fact discovery, 

including the depositions of fact witnesses, the parties will not be ready to make initial expert 

witness disclosures by the current deadline, December 16, 2015. For these reasons, the parties have 

agreed to stipulate to a proposed order continuing the deadline for expert disclosure, rebuttal 

disclosure, and the discovery deadline, to enable the parties to complete fact and expert discovery 

without incurring undue burden and expense. 

3. The parties do not seek to continue any deadlines other than the deadlines for expert 

disclosure, rebuttal disclosure, and discovery completion. The parties do not seek to continue the 

trial date or the pretrial conference date.
