STIP. AND ORDER EXTENDING TIME TO RESPOND TO 30TH ROUND REPORT, PART B 

Defendants approached Plaintiffs regarding their need for additional time. Specifically, 

Defendants requested that Plaintiffs agree to a nine-day extension, up to and including January 4, 

2024, for the parties to file responses or objections to the Report. Plaintiffs are amenable to that 

proposal. The parties further agreed that each party will have until January 23, 2024, to file 

responses to the other party’s objections or responses to the Report if they determine such a 

response is necessary. 

Accordingly, the parties request that the Court extend the deadline for the parties to file 

their responses or objections to the Report to January 4, 2024, and order that any responses to the 

objections or responses must be filed by January 23, 2024.
