Whereas, (1) Plaintiff Rygg’s supplemental brief in response to the Court’s analysis set 

forth in the order of February 5, 2019 (Docket 55), (2) Plaintiff Rygg’s reply to Defendant’s 

Opposition to Plaintiff’s Submission of Social Security Award (Docket 56) are due on March 5, 

2019: and, (3)the parties are also required to meet and confer concerning certain computations

described in Docket 55 by March 5, 2019;

Whereas, counsel for Ms. Rygg has missed a substantial amount of time from work in 

recent weeks because he is the conservator for the youngest son of his (now deceased) second 

wife, who is developmentally delayed and fragile medically. The conservatee was hospitalized 

from February 19 until March 3, which required counsel to spend substantial time attending to 

his needs; 

Now, therefore, the parties stipulate that the (1) briefing schedule on Plaintiff Rygg’s

response to the Court’s analysis set forth in the order of February 5, 2019 (Docket 55) and (2) 

Plaintiff Rygg’s reply to Defendant’s Opposition to Plaintiff’s Submission of Social Security 

Award (Docket 56) be extended by one week so that, instead of those briefs being due March 5, 

they will be due March 12, 2019. (3) The parties are also required to meet and confer by March 

5 concerning the computation of certain benefits by this Court’s February 5 order. The parties 

request that the date to meet and confer be extended one week, that is, until March 12, 2019. 

In order to accommodate the one week extension requested by counsel for plaintiff, the 

parties further stipulate that the due dates for (1) Defendant’s supplemental brief and (2) Ms. 

Rygg’s reply thereto, in response to the Court’s analysis set forth in the order of February 5, 

2019 (Docket 55) be extended one week, from March 19, 2019 until March 26, 2019, and March 

26, 2019 to April 2, 2019, respectively.
