fact discovery cut off for December 3, 2015, expert disclosure 

discovery cut off for February 4, 2016, and June 2, 2106 as the 

last date to hear dispositive motions. Finally, this Court set 

the trial to occur on November 14, 2016.

The parties appeared for Mediation on September 23, 2015. 

The parties did not reach a settlement. 

North Coast Fabricators, Inc. immediately thereafter served 

follow-up written discovery to all plaintiffs and to defendants, 

Savage Logistics, LLC and Daniel Maciejewski. Upon receipt and 

analysis of defendants', Savage Logistics, LLC and Daniel 

Maciejewski, discovery responses, North Coast Fabricators, Inc. 

noticed the depositions of the Savage Logistics, LLC's employees 

identified to date and all plaintiffs. 

Savage Logistics, LLC and Daniel Maciejewski noticed the 

depositions of North Coast Fabricators, Inc.'s employees, Eric 

Simonsen and Aaron LaGasse. The parties dispute the date and 

method of service of the Notices of Deposition for Eric Simonsen 

and Aaron LaGasse. On November 9, 2015, Savage Logistics, LLC 

and Daniel Maciejewski served a Notice of Deposition directed 

towards North Coast Fabricators, Inc.'s "persons most 

knowledgeable" regarding four categories of testimony. However, 

given all the other hearings and depositions on calendar for 

this case, and counsels' remaining case load, counsel for North 

Coast Fabricators, Inc. had no availability dates to prepare for 

and hold the depositions of the North Coast Fabricators, Inc. 

employees prior to discovery cut off. The next available dates 

for those depositions are December 16, and 17, 2015.

The parties also require the depositions of plaintiffs. 

However, the main issue of dispute at this time is liability. 

Plaintiffs, Erica Avila, individually and as parent and 

guardian, and Tawnya Stanley, as parent and guardian, do not 

have knowledge of liability facts. The parties would like to 

complete liability discovery and wait to hold the depositions of 

plaintiffs Erica Avila, individually and as parent and guardian, 

and Tawnya Stanley, as parent and guardian, until after a second 

Mediation session in an attempt to resolve this matter most 

efficiently.

II. STPIULATION

The parties stipulate and agree to hold the depositions of 

Aaron LaGasse, Eric Simonsen and the four "persons most 

knowledgeable" identified in the November 9, 2015 Notice of 

Deposition on December 16 and 17, 2015. The parties stipulate 

that discovery cut off be continued to December 17, 2015 for the 

limited purpose of deposing North Coast Fabricators, Inc. 

employees Aaron LaGasse, Eric Simonsen and the four "persons 

most knowledgeable" identified in the November 9, 2015 Notice of 

Deposition.

The parties further stipulate and agree to extend discovery 

cut off for the limited purpose of holding the depositions of 

plaintiffs, Erica Avila, individually and as parent and 

guardian, and Tawnya Stanley, as parent and guardian, until June 

30, 2016. 

All other cut off dates will follow the April 20, 2015 

Pretrial Scheduling Order.

IT IS SO STIPULATED:
