STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER 

STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER

Defendants/third-party plaintiff Illinois Union Insurance Company (“Illinois Union”) and 

third-party defendant Federal Insurance Company (“Federal”) hereby stipulate and jointly move 

this Court for an order amending certain dates in the parties’ Joint Case Management Statement, 

dated March 5, 2010, which were adopted by Court Order on that same day, as follows: 

1. These proposed changes are requested to permit the parties additional time to 

complete written discovery and the subsequent orderly depositions of necessary 

witnesses. Additionally, the changes will permit the parties additional time to attempt 

to resolve this dispute through mediation. 

2. The parties have agreed to a revised scheduling order as follows, subject to the 

Court’s approval: 

 Proponent’s Rule 26(a)(2)(B) Statement : Due September 3, 2010 

 Rebuttal Rule 26(a)(2)(B) Statement : Due October 4, 2010 

 Deadline for close of fact discovery : October 22, 2010 

 Deadline for expert depositions (if any) : November 5, 2010 

 Dispositive motions : Due December 3, 2010 

3. The basis of this stipulation and proposed amendment of the scheduling order is that 

the parties have, in good faith, been attempting to complete written discovery and 

participate in mediation. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, the mediation 

previously scheduled for June 9, 2010 was adjourned. The parties and the mediator 

have been diligent in discussions regarding a new date for the mediation and believe 

it will conclude by mid-September 2010 at the latest.
