PROPOSED STIPULATED ORDER AMENDING PRETRIAL SCHEDULING ORDER

WHEREAS, on September 4, 2014, the Court entered a Pretrial Scheduling 

Order (the “Scheduling Order”), scheduling a fact discovery deadline of April 22, 

2015 (ECF No. 41);

WHEREAS, on January 29, 2015, DePuy Synthes filed its Motion to Compel 

Production of Documents from Third-Party K2M, Inc. (the “Motion”), which is 

noticed to be heard on February 20, 2015. (ECF No. 46);

WHEREAS, on February 3, 2015, all parties and third-party K2M met and 

conferred regarding rescheduling depositions in this matter until after resolution of 

DePuy Synthes’ Motion;

WHEREAS this is the first request for an extension of any deadlines in the 

Scheduling Order;

WHEREAS, the parties’ request for an extension of the fact discovery deadline 

will not affect any other deadlines in the Scheduling Order;

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties STIPULATE and AGREE to amend the 

Order to extend the deadline for fact discovery as follows: (i) if the Court denies the 

Motion, then fact discovery will be extended until sixty days from the date of that 

Order; or (ii) if the Court grants the Motion, then fact discovery will be extended until 

eighty days1 from the date of that Order. If any party or non-party objects to or seeks 

reconsideration of the Magistrate Judge’s Findings and Recommendations pursuant to 

Local Rules 303 or 304, then these deadlines will be tolled until such objections or 

requests for reconsideration are resolved.

 1 The additional twenty (20) days of discovery corresponds to the amount of time that would be afforded to 

K2M, Inc. if the Court grants the relief requested in the proposed order accompanying DePuy Synthes’ Motion. (ECF 

No. 46-1)
