ORDER 

This case is before the court on two Motions to Exclude, seeking to exclude expert 

evidence offered by the Plaintiff (Doc. #100, 101), and filed by the Defendants on June 26, 2015. 

 The Scheduling Order entered in this case set a deadline for filing Daubert motions on or 

before the dispositive motions deadline, which was 90 days prior to the pretrial hearing set on 

April 9, 2015. (Doc. #14 at Section 2). By later Order of the court, the case was reset on the 

September 28, 2015 trial term, with a pretrial date of August 26, 2015 (Doc. #69). That Order did 

not change the Scheduling Order provision which ties the dispositive motion and Daubert motion 

deadline to the pretrial order date, and in fact stated that all provisions of the Scheduling Order 

other than Sections 1, 7, 9, 10, and 11 remain in full force and effect . (Doc. #69). A Motion for 

Summary Judgment was timely-filed on the dispositive motion deadline, May 26, 2015, which is 

ninety days before the new pretrial date. 

 The Motions to Exclude expert evidence, having been filed a month after the dispositive 

motion deadline, are untimely. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that the Motions to Exclude 

(Doc. #100, 101) are DENIED.
