Whereas, Plaintiff Rygg’s supplemental brief in response to the Court’s analysis set forth 

in the order of February 5, 2019 (Docket 55), Plaintiff Rygg’s reply to Defendant’s Opposition to 

Plaintiff’s Submission of Social Security Award (Docket 56) are due on February 26, 2019: and, 

the parties are also required to meet and confer concerning certain computations described in 

Docket 55 by February 26, 2019;

Whereas, counsel for Ms. Rygg has missed a substantial amount of time from work in 

recent weeks for two reasons: (1) the memorial service for his first wife (who is the mother of his

children) took place this past weekend and a lot of friends who no longer live in the area have 

been visiting over the past two week, and (2) he is the conservator for the youngest son of his 

(now deceased) second wife, and he is developmentally delayed and fragile medically. The 

conservatee has been hospitalized for the past five days without a confirmed diagnosis, which 

requires counsel to spend substantial time attending to his needs; 

Now, therefore, the parties stipulate that the (1) briefing schedule on Plaintiff Rygg’s

response to the Court’s analysis set forth in the order of February 5, 2019 (Docket 55) and (2) 

Plaintiff Rygg’s reply to Defendant’s Opposition to Plaintiff’s Submission of Social Security 

Award (Docket 56) be extended by one week so that, instead of those briefs being due today, 

they will be due March 5, 2019. (3) The parties are also required to meet and confer by today 

concerning the computation of certain benefits by this Court’s February 5 order. The parties 

request that the date to meet and confer be extended one week from today, that is, until March 5, 

2019. 

In order to accommodate the one week extension requested by counsel for plaintiff, the 

parties further stipulate that the due dates for (1) Defendant’s supplemental brief and (2) Ms. 

Rygg’s reply thereto, in response to the Court’s analysis set forth in the order of February 5,
