• That the expert witness disclosure cut-off date currently set for June 9, 2014 be 

moved November 10, 2014.

• That the Dispositive Motion cut-off date currently set for October 16, 2014 be 

moved to March 19, 2015.

• That the Joint Pretrial Statement currently due November 26, 2014 be due to April 

29, 2015.

• That the Trial currently set for February 9, 2015 at 9:00am, be moved to July 6,

This calendaring modification is requested to allow the parties to complete 

discovery, narrow the issues and prepare the case for a time-efficient trial should a

loggerheads and which have further slowed the process.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
