WHEREAS: 

1. The original Pretrial Scheduling Order entered by the Court on May 1, 2008, set a 

discovery deadline of Friday, September 12, 2008. 

2. There has been substantial discovery to date, which includes the deposition of 

Plaintiff, Defendant’s Request for Production of Documents, Request for Admissions and Special 

Interrogatories, and Plaintiff’s Request for Production of Documents and Special Interrogatories. 

3. Plaintiff has noticed, after conferring with Defendant on dates, the depositions of 

Dave Brumley, Brandon Carter, Tom Grammer, Margie Hernandez and Shannon Sherwood to 

take place on September 11 and 12. The depositions were originally set prior to September 11 

and September 12, but were canceled due to conflicts with various schedules. 

4. The reason that these depositions cannot be completed by September 12 is that 

Plaintiff’s counsel is currently in a trial that has extended into the week of September 12. In 

addition, Plaintiff’s counsel is commencing another trial on September 30, 2008, which it has 

been confirmed that it will for certain go forward on said date. 

5. This is the first request for an extension of time within which to complete 

discovery. 

6. The parties desire an extension of time up to and including October 31, 2008, 

within which to complete discovery for the following purposes only: 

(a) Rescheduling of the depositions of those individuals listed above in 

paragraph 3, as already noticed by Plaintiff, 

(b) Allowing Plaintiff to provide amended responses to Defendant’s Special 

Interrogatories, numbers 14 and 16, if agreed upon following the parties’ meet and confer efforts, 

(c) Allowing Defendant to take all steps necessary to move to compel such 

responses or further responses to Defendant’s Special Interrogatories, numbers 14 and 16; 

(d) Allowing Defendant to take all steps necessary to enforce a subpoena 

served on Plaintiff’s former employer on August 18, 2008, and to which Plaintiff’s former 

employer has failed to comply within the prescribed time period.

(a) The discovery cut off is extended from September 12, 2008, to October 31, 

2008, for the limited purposes set forth herein. 

(b) The deadline to hear dispositive motions is extended from January 12,
