Pursuant to Local Rule 144, Plaintiffs Kristi Lauris, individually and as successor in 

interest to the Estate of Dainis Lauris, Kristi Lauris as Guardian ad Litem for L.L., and Taylor 

Lauris (collectively “Plaintiffs”) and Defendant Novartis AG hereby stipulate and request that 

Novartis AG have a 14-day extension of time to respond to the Complaint in this action. The

reason for this request is that Plaintiffs plan to file an amended complaint, obviating the need to 

respond to the original Complaint. The parties have previously extended until May 31 Novartis 

AG’s time to move, answer, or otherwise respond to the Complaint. (ECF No. 16.) In the event 

that Plaintiffs do not file an Amended Complaint by May 31, Novartis AG’s time shall be 

extended to and include June 14, 2016.
