 Plaintiff and counter-defendant Keith R. Clayton (“plaintiff”) and defendant and 

counter-claimant Automated Gaming Technologies, Inc. (“AGT”), and defendants John Prather 

("Prather") and Robert Magnanti ("Magnanti") (AGT, Prather and Magnanti being hereinafter 

collectively referred to as "defendants"), respectfully submit this Stipulation and Proposed 

Order requesting the Court to modify, in the respects set below, the Court's 1st Amended Status 

(Pre-trial Scheduling) Order (Docket No. 84), as modified by the Court's Order modifying said 

Order entered herein on September 15, 2014 (Docket No. 148), and in support of said request 

submit the following demonstrating good cause for the parties' request, as required by 

Fed.R.Civ. P 16 (b): 

 1. On March 19, 2015, after a hearing on March 11, 2015, the Court entered its "Order 

Granting Downey Brand LLP's Motion to Withdraw as Counsel for Defendant and CounterClaimant, Automated Gaming Technologies, Inc., and Defendants, John B. Prather and Robert 

Magnanti" (the "Withdrawal Order," Docket No. 197), effective immediately as to Prather and 

Magnanti, and effective April 10, 2015 as to AGT, but Downey Brand, LLP was in the interim 

relieved of any duty to represent AGT other than in connection with a settlement conference set 

for March 30, 2015. 

 2. In the Withdrawal Order, the Court, effective March 11, 2015, stayed all discovery 

and discovery motions for 30 days, until April 10, 2015, and stated that it would, upon 

application, grant a reasonable extension of current April 15, 2015 discovery cut-off. On 

March 11, 2015, plaintiff had pending two motions to compel, a Motion to Compel Defendant 

AGT to Produce Document Pursuant to Plaintiff's Fourth Document Request (Docket No. 185), 

and a Motion to Compel Defendant AGT to Produce Document Pursuant to Plaintiff's Fifth 

Document Request (Docket No. 189), set for hearing on April 8, 2015. By reason of the 

Withdrawal Order, Magistrate Judge Breenan on March 26, 2016 entering a Minute Order 

(Docket No. 198) denying those motions without prejudice, and vacating the April 8, 2015 

hearing date. 

 3. Downey Brand LLP's motion to withdraw first came on for hearing on February 11,

2015, and was denied without prejudice at that time,, and the Court then set a status conference 

for March 11, 2015, and ordered Prather and Magnanti to then personally appear (see Docket 

No. 186). In opposition to the said motion to withdraw, plaintiff had submitted on January 28, 

2015 a Declaration of his counsel (Docket No. 180) listing nine (9) depositions plaintiff 

planned to take by early March, 2015, as to which plaintiff's counsel had, on January 22, 2015, 

requested agreeable dates from defendants' counsel. At the hearing on February 11, 2015 the 

Court advised plaintiff's counsel not to proceed with other than the depositions of Prather and 

Magnanti prior to the hearing set for March 11, 2015. Plaintiff took the deposition of Prather on 

March 10, 2015. Plaintiff also took the deposition of Magnanti, originally noticed for March 

10, reset by stipulation to the afternoon of March 11, and then postponed by reason of the 

Withdrawal Order, on April 17, 2015 (as specially permitted by the terms of the Withdrawal 

Order). 

 4. On April 10, 2015, the Burgoyne Law Group, by Henry M Burgoyne, III, Esq., filed 

Notice of Appearance as attorney for AGT, Prather and Magnanti. 

 5. Plaintiff's counsel, Mr. Premo, and defendants' new counsel, Mr. Burgoyne, have 

met and conferred, and agreed that in consideration of all of the foregoing, an extension of the 

April 15, 2015 discovery cut-off, and all dates after April 15, 2015 set forth in the Court's 1st 

Amended Status (Pre-trial Scheduling) Order (Docket No. 84), as modified by the Court's 

Order modifying said Order entered herein on September 15, 2014 (Docket No. 148), for a 

period of approximately five and one-half months from the dates set forth in the said Order of 

September 15, 2014 is reasonable and agreeable, and good cause exists therefor. 

 In consideration of the foregoing, the parties stipulate and request that the 1st Amended 

Status (Pre-trial Scheduling) Order be modified as follows: 

 Discovery Cut-Off: October 2, 2015 

 Dispositive motion filing: November 4, 2015 

 Dispositive motion hearing: December 16, 2015 at 9:30 a.m.
