VAN EERDEN TRUCKING COMPANY, 

INC., 

 Counter-Claimant, 

v. 

LAWRENCE S. YOAKUM, 

 Plaintiff. 

 ALL PARTIES, THROUGH THEIR RESPECTIVE COUNSEL OF RECORD, HEREBY 

STIPULATE AND REQUEST THIS COURT TO ORDER, THAT the settlement conference 

currently scheduled before Magistrate Judge Edmund F. Brennan on September 15, 2016 at 10:00 

a.m. be continued and rescheduled to Thursday, November 10, 2016 February 16, 2017 at 10:00 

a.m. 

 Good cause exists for this continuance: The parties are presently attempting to complete 

depositions of the principal parties involved, plaintiff Lawrence Yoakum and out-of-state 

defendant Michelle Perysian. Michelle Perysian’s deposition currently is scheduled for September 

29, 2016 and the deposition of plaintiff Lawrence Yoakum is set for September 7, 2016. 

Furthermore, the depositions of plaintiffs Danielle Yoakum and Shelby Yoakum were taken on 

September 2, 2016. The parties need additional time to complete their discovery on both liability 

and damages issues in order for plaintiffs and defendant’s principal to be prepared for meaningful 

settlement discussions. Presently, the discovery cutoff date is October 17, 2016, with expert 

disclosures due on December 16, 2016. A November date for a settlement conference will allow 

the parties to exchange critical information on the amounts of special damages incurred as well as 

critical facts on the liability issues. 

 The parties will submit confidential settlement-conference statements as directed in the 

original Scheduling Order to Judge Brennan’s chambers on or before Thursday, November 3, 

2016 February 9, 2017 (one week before the conference).
