Stipulation & Order to Extend Time For

Expert Disclosures & Discovery Cut-Off 2

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED by and between plaintiff James D.

Bell and defendant Union Pacific Railroad Company that the deadline for initial expertwitness disclosures be extended from the current date of October 28, 2005 to November 28,

2005 and that the discovery cut-off date be extended from December 27, 2005 to January 27,

2006. An extension of these deadlines is necessary because Larry Lockshin, the attorney

who is most familiar with the case and will try this matter, underwent back surgery on

October 3, 2005; his treating physician, Dr. Paul Slosar, estimates the Mr. Lockshin’s

recovery from surgery to the point where he can again resume full-time work activities is,

absent any unforeseen complications, three months. [See, Oct. 11, 2005 Dr. Slosar Note

attached hereto as Exhibit 1.] Mr. Lockshin has been out of the office since his operation

and is not expected to return until early November on a part-time basis, if that. Plaintiff is

therefore unable to make disclosures on the current date and needs more time until Mr.

Lockshin returns to the office. The parties do not anticipate that an extension of the other

scheduling dates will be necessary.

IT IS SO STIPULATED AND AGREED.
