set for February 15, 2006, at 2:00 p.m., be continued to March 24, 2006, at 10:00 a.m.

The brief continuance is requested so that the parties may complete certain discovery

before the conference, including the depositions of two of the Defendants’ employees and

Plaintiff’s treating physician. It is expected that the employees will be deposed on March 1,

2006, and that the doctor’s deposition will be completed in early March.

Please be advised that the parties will be submitting a Stipulation and [Proposed]

Respectfully submitted,
