Courtroom 4

The parties believe there is good cause for the proposed changes due to an 

unanticipated medical emergency involving Plaintiff’s lead counsel, Brian T. 

Dunn, which necessitated several unanticipated hospital visits from November, 

2019 through January 2020. Should the Court require any additional information, 

Mr. Dunn will file a declaration under seal specifying the specific diagnosis and 

procedures underlying the instant request. For these reasons, the parties are in 

agreement that there is good cause for the above proposed changes to the discovery 

deadlines.
