I. RECITALS

1. WHEREAS, the Parties have recently completed discovery in the abovecaptioned matter. 

2. WHEREAS, the Parties are scheduled to attend an Early Neutral Evaluation 

session ("ENE") with the Court appointed neutral evaluator, Rachel Ehrlich, Esq., on December 

12, 2016.

3. WHEREAS, no trial date has been set in this matter.

4. WHEREAS, on October 27, 2016, the Court issued an Amended Scheduling 

Order (Dkt. 43), setting deadlines for fact discovery, expert discovery, and dispositive motions. 

The Amended Scheduling Order set January 26, 2017 as the deadline to hear dispositive motions.

5. WHEREAS, the Parties do not seek any extension of dates currently set by the 

Amended Scheduling Order relating to the discovery cutoff.

6. WHEREAS, the current deadline to hear dispositive motions is January 26, 2017. 

In conjunction with the aforementioned deadline, the Parties' deadline to file dispositive motions 

is December 22, 2016. The current deadline to file oppositions to the aforementioned dispositive 

motions is January 5, 2017 and the deadline to file reply briefs is January 12, 2017. 

7. WHEREAS, the Parties hereby seek an extension of the deadline to hear 

dispositive motions. The Parties hereby stipulate to and request entry of an Order extending the 

deadline to hear dispositive motions to February 23, 2017. Good cause exists for an extension of 

the current deadline of January 26, 2017 to file dispositive motions, as such an extension will 

allow the Parties additional time following the December 12, 2016 ENE (if the matter does not 

resolve at the ENE session) to undertake additional discussions regarding a potential resolution 

of this matter prior to filing cross-motions. The Parties have been working diligently toward 

moving this case forward in an efficient, expeditious manner. The Parties wish to litigate this 

matter in a cost-effective manner and avoid unnecessary attorneys' fees and costs.

8. WHEREAS, James R. Tenero, lead counsel for Plaintiff, Scottsdale Insurance 

Company, will be unavailable due to a pre-paid vacation to Brazil from December 23, 2016 to 

January 8, 2017.
