result in the dismissal of one or more defendants, before filing responsive pleadings or engaging in 

pre-answer motion practice. Therefore, Plaintiffs and all Defendants, by and through their respective 

counsel, and pursuant to Local Rule 144(a), hereby stipulate and agree that Defendants shall have an 

extension of time up to and including October 24, 2014, to respond to Plaintiffs’ First Amended

Complaint and file any third-party claims.
