Plaintiff Johannes Moehnle ("plaintiff") and Defendant Sun Life and Health Insurance 

Company (“defendant”) (collectively "the Parties") hereby stipulate as follows: 

THE REASON FOR THE STIPULATION

Defendant was served with plaintiff’s Complaint for Benefits under ERISA (29 U.S.C. Sec. 

1132), Equitable Relief, and Declaratory Relief (“Complaint”) on September 4, 2013. The 

response to the complaint was due on September 27, 2013. The Parties previously stipulated that 

defendant could have an extension of time to October 18, 2013, to answer the Complaint, which 

extension was less than 28 days and therefore Court approval was not required pursuant to Local 

Rule 144(a). 

Counsel for plaintiff Mr. Glass and counsel for defendant Mr. Nalty have worked against 

each other in several matters and believe that settlement talks can be productive in the early stages 

of this matter. Moreover, defendant would prefer to invest attorney time in pursuing these 

settlement discussions rather than having to incur the expense of drafting an answer. Avoiding this 

expense will likely help make the settlement discussions more productive. 

THE STIPULATION 

Accordingly, for the reasons stated above, plaintiff, through his counsel of record Mr. 

Glass, and defendant through its counsel of record Mr. Nalty, hereby stipulate that defendant has 

until November 8, 2013 to file an answer to the complaint in this matter. No additional extensions 

will be requested by defendant. The parties should be able to complete their initial settlement 

discussions during this period. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED THROUGH COUNSEL OF RECORD.
