Plaintiffs and Defendants, by and through their counsel, hereby stipulate and respectfully 

request that the Court amend the Pretrial Scheduling Order (Doc. #16) to specifically include 

Section IV.

I. GOOD CAUSE EXISTS TO AMEND THE PRETRIAL SCHEDULING ORDER

On January 15, 2015 and January 22, 2015 the Defendants filed Motions for Summary 

Judgment and a Motion to Dismiss as to the claims of Henry and Lennear. (Doc #25-36) The two 

motions for summary judgment and the motion to dismiss are currently set for hearing on 

February 26, 2015. Section IV of the Pretrial Scheduling Order indicates that all dispositive motions 

shall be heard no later than March 12, 2015. 

The parties have agreed to mediation and attempt to completely resolve the case for the 

benefit of the parties and the Court. The mediation is currently set for March 2, 2015. As such, the 

parties have stipulated to continue the three motions to a date after the mediation, but before April 23, 

2015. Based on such stipulation, the parties agree that Plaintiffs’ oppositions to the motions will be 

due based on the continued motion dates, rather than the current deadline of February 12, 2015. 

Based on such stipulation, Plaintiffs do not intend to file their oppositions by the current deadline. 

Defendants intend to ask the Court to reschedule the current hearing date on these motions to a date 

on or before April 23, 2015 if this order is signed by the Court.

II. RELIEF SOUGHT

The parties hereby request to have the Pretrial Scheduling Order amended and the Motion 

Hearing Schedule deadline moved from March 12, 2015 to April 23, 2015 so the parties can attempt 

to mediate and possibly resolve the case.

SO STIPULATED
