 On June 18, the Court issued an order authorizing plaintiff The Burlington Insurance

following the first day of publication"). Defendants will then have 21 days, i.e., until Friday, 

August 20, to make their appearances. 

 Plaintiff therefore requests that the Court continue by approximately six weeks the 

Scheduling Conference currently scheduled for August 3, 2010, to allow time for the Godbout 

defendants to make their appearances and participate in preparing a joint Scheduling Report. 

Specifically, to provide sufficient time after Friday, August 20 for plaintiff and defendants to hold 

the Rule 26(f) Conference of the Parties and prepare a joint Scheduling Report for filing seven 

days before the Scheduling Conference, plaintiff respectfully requests that the Scheduling 

Conference be set for Tuesday, September 14, or the first available date thereafter. 

 Plaintiff also requests that the time for service to be completed be extended by 

approximately 10 days to July 30, as that is the date on which the service by publication pursuant 

to the June 18 Order will be complete.
