4. On December 22, 2014, Defendant filed a Second Ex Parte Application to Modify 

Court Order to Extend Discovery Deadline to Complete Deposition of Dr. Adler. As set forth therein, 

Defendant attempted to obtain a mutually convenient date for the deposition of plaintiff’s expert. 

Emails and letters were sent and telephone calls were made. However, Plaintiff failed to respond to 

Defendant’s inquiries. A notice of subpoena regarding Dr. Adler’s deposition was served on 

December 10, 2014. Two days later, plaintiff filed a Notice of Attorney Suspension indicating that 

counsel’s license to practice has been suspended for at least six months. 

5. On April 30, 2015, the Court approved the substitution of Mr. Gray as Plaintiff pro se. 

(ECF No. 124.) 

6. On May 4, 2015, the Court issued its Order Granting Defendant’s Second Ex Parte 

Application whereby Dr. Adler’s deposition was to be completed by June 22, 2015, or within 120 

days of written notice that plaintiff’s counsel’s license to practice is in good standing. (ECF No. 

125.) Plaintiff’s counsel has never filed or served any such notice. 

7. On May 4, 2015, the Court construed Mr. Kitay’s notice of attorney suspension as a 

motion to withdraw and granted the motion. Plaintiff was ordered to either have new counsel file an 

appearance or file an appearance pro se. (ECF No. 126.) 

8. On May 14, 2015, Plaintiff wrote a letter to the court requesting the appointment of a

public defender. (ECF No. 127.) 

9. On June 10, 2015, the Court deemed Plaintiff’s letter as a motion to appoint counsel 

and granted it. James V. Weixel, Jr. was appointed as counsel. (ECF No. 128.) 

10. On June 19, 2015, counsel for Defendant contacted Plaintiff’s newly appointed 

counsel, James V. Weixel, Jr. by telephone to discuss the deadline to depose Dr. Adler and the status 

of the case. 

11. Plaintiff’s counsel has not yet had an opportunity to complete his review of the file. 

He has not had an opportunity to contact Plaintiff’s retained experts. He has a pre-planned vacation 

beginning June 20th. 

12. The parties respectfully request that this Court extend the deadline to complete the 

deposition of Dr. Adler for sixty days or August 18, 2015.
