18273065.1 

 On June 3, 2021, the Court issued an order adopting the parties’ proposed schedule to 

adjudicate Plaintiff-Intervenor Christopher Lipsey’s claim in intervention. ECF No. 7191. On 

December 9, 2021, the parties stipulated to, and the Court ordered, an extension of the discovery 

deadlines. ECF No. 7393. 

 Lipsey and Defendants have been actively working to complete discovery on schedule. 

Defendants have completed their document production, and Lipsey is in the process of 

responding to Defendants’ second set of discovery requests. The parties, including counsel 

representing Lipsey, Defendants, and Coleman class counsel, met and conferred and agree that 

efforts to resolve Plaintiff-Intervenor Lipsey’s claim without litigation should be exhausted, with 

input from the Special Master and his suicide prevention expert, on the security and welfare 

check policy that requires the use of Guard One. To allow time to explore settlement, the parties 

jointly request the Court enter an order referring the issues raised in Lipsey’s complaint in 

intervention to Magistrate Judge Kendall Newman for mediation and extending the deadlines set 

forth in the December 9, 2021 order, ECF No. 7393, by approximately sixty days, as follows: 

1. Fact discovery shall be completed by April 29, 2022, except that the deadline for serving 

requests for production, interrogatories or requests for admission will be deemed to have expired; 

2. The parties shall disclose experts by May 24, 2022; 

3. The parties shall disclose rebuttal experts by June 21, 2022; 

4. All expert discovery shall be completed by July 15, 2022; 

5. Dispositive and Daubert motions shall be filed by August 2, 2022, and shall be noticed 

for hearing and briefing in accordance with the provisions of Local Rule 230; and 

6. If necessary, an evidentiary hearing will be set for a date in November 2022.
