TO THE COURT, ALL PARTIES, AND TO THEIR ATTORNEYS OF RECORD:

Plaintiffs Evelyn Nand and Sukhandra Nand (collectively "Plaintiffs") and Defendants 

Select Portfolio Servicing, Inc. (erroneously sued as Specialized Portfolio Servicing, Inc.) 

(“SPS”) and National Default Servicing Corporation (“NDSC,” collectively “Defendants”), by 

and through their counsel of record, hereby respectfully submit this stipulated request to continue 

the currently scheduled hearing dates and briefing schedules on Plaintiffs’ motion for a 

preliminary injunction and Defendants’ motion to dismiss, both currently scheduled for 

September 15, 2016. This request is being made to provide the parties with additional time to 

determine if their dispute can be resolved informally. 

On July 18, 2016, Plaintiffs filed this action. ECF No. 1. Simultaneously with this filing, 

Plaintiffs filed an ex parte application for a temporary restraining order restraining the foreclosure 

sale of the relevant property. ECF No. 4.

On July 18, 2016, the Court granted Plaintiffs’ ex parte application and scheduled a 

preliminary injunction hearing for August 4, 2016. The Court also established the following 

briefing schedule:

• July 26, 2016 - Defendants’ deadline to submit their responses to Plaintiffs’ 

motion; and

• July 29, 2016 - Plaintiffs’ deadline to submit their reply brief in support of their 

motion. 

On July 26, 2016 the parties submitted a Stipulation and Proposed Order continuing the 

August 4, 2016 preliminary injunction hearing and related filing deadlines and preserving the 

temporary restraining order for the duration of the continuance. Pursuant to the Stipulation, 

adopted by the Court, the hearing on Plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary injunction was continued 

to September 15, 2016. In accordance with that continuance, the following briefing schedule was 

adopted:

• August 30, 2016 - Defendants’ deadline to submit their responses to Plaintiffs’ 

motion; and

their motion. ECF No. 17

On August 9, 2016, Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Complaint, with a hearing 

date of September 15, 2016. ECF No. 20. The following briefing schedule is associated with that 

motion:

motion; and

• August 30, 2016 - Defendants’ deadline to submit their reply brief in support of 

their motion. ECF No. 20

On August 19, 2016 the parties submitted a Stipulation and Proposed Order continuing the 

preliminary injunction hearing, and related filing deadlines, and preserving the temporary 

restraining order for the duration of the continuance. In addition, the Parties’ Stipulation and 

Proposed Order continued the haring on Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss and related filing 

deadlines. ECF No. 23. Pursuant to the Stipulation, as amended by the Court, the hearing on 

Plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary injunction and Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss was continued to 

November 3, 2016. In accordance with that continuance, the following briefing schedule was 

adopted:

• October 13, 2016 – the parties’ deadlines to submit their respective responsive 

briefs to the pending motions; and

• October 20, 2016 – the parties’ deadlines to submit their respective reply briefs in 

support of their pending motions. ECF No. 24

In a continuing effort to resolve this matter, the Parties submit a further stipulation to 

continue the hearing on Plaintiffs’ Motion for Preliminary Injunction and Defendant’s Motion to 

Dismiss. Pursuant to this stipulation, the Parties respectfully request that the November 3, 2016 

hearings on Plaintiffs’ Motion for Preliminary Injunction and Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss be 

continued to December 15, 2016, to be heard with the Initial Case Management Conference, or to 

another date convenient to the Court’s schedule. The Parties also request that the Court continue 

the briefing dates as follows:
