STIPULATION TO VACATE THE SCHEDULING ORDER

Plaintiffs Joni Carter and Daniel Carter (“Plaintiffs”) and Defendants Coloplast Manufacturing 

US, LLC and Coloplast Corp. (hereinafter, “Coloplast”), by and through their counsel of record, 

stipulate and agree regarding their joint request to vacate the scheduling order (Doc. 34) as follows:

Plaintiffs’ counsel has been unable to reach their client, as detailed in their Motion for Leave 

to Withdraw (Doc. 35). Plaintiffs have not been in contact with their counsel for nearly 3 months, 

despite their counsel’s multiple attempts to contact them. Id. at 6. At this point, it is unknown whether 

plaintiffs intend to continue pursuing their claims. 

Under the current scheduling order, disclosure of expert witnesses must occur by July 6, 2023. 

This deadline is less than a month after the hearing on the Motion for Leave to Withdraw. Good cause 

exists to vacate the current schedule to avoid the possibility of plaintiffs missing this deadline and to 

avoid the potentially unnecessary cost and effort for defendants to meet this deadline, when it is 

unclear whether plaintiffs will move forward with their case. Vacating the upcoming deadlines and 

dates also will allow time for plaintiffs to find new counsel, if they intend to pursue their claims with 

assistance of counsel. 

BASED THEREON, THE PARTIES HEREBY STIPULATE AND AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

That the deadlines in the Status (Pretrial Scheduling) Order (Doc. 34) be vacated unless and 

until such time as it can be determined that plaintiffs intend to continue pursuing their claims. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
