had substantively settled this matter. Doc. 117. That day, the Court issued an Order Re:

Settlement and Disposition, which vacated all dates/hearings previously set in this matter and

stated that in accordance with the provisions of Local Rule 16-160, dispositional documents

were to be filed on or before April 23, 2007. Doc. 118.

5. The parties and counsel have worked diligently to finalize the paperwork and complete

the terms of their settlement agreement, which include the filing of a signed Stipulation and

documents).

6. On or about March 28, 2007, Plaintiff requested that the Stipulation and [Proposed]

additional days absent unforseen circumstances. Defendants have agreed to Plaintiff's request

subject to Court approval.

the deadline to file dispositional documents from April 23, 2007 to July 23, 2007.

8. This stipulation is the parties’ first request for an extension of time to file dispositional
