JOINT STIPULATION TO EXTEND DEADLINES 

REED SMITH LLP 

A limited liability partnership formed in the State of Delaware

1. The Court entered the Civil Pretrial Order (the “Order”) on December 23, 2014, 

which sets forth the current case schedule in this matter (Doc. 28). The Court also set a mediation 

deadline of November 15, 2015, in civil minutes entered on December 16, 2015 (Doc. 27). The 

Parties respectfully seek a brief extension of the discovery and mediation deadlines in this case. The 

Parties do not seek to alter the deadline for dispositive motions or the pretrial conference date. 

2. This is the Parties’ first stipulation or request to extend the deadlines and is made in 

order to allow the Parties additional time to conduct and exchange discovery, collect all relevant 

medical records, and issue expert reports necessary to collectively evaluate their cases. Furthermore, 

mediation has a greater possibility of being productive once additional fact discovery has been 

completed in this case and the parties have begun to develop their arguments and defenses. 

3. This request is made for good cause and not made for the purposes of delay or to 

prejudice any party, but in the interests of justice and for the purposes of an efficient and costeffective potential resolution of this case. 

NOW THEREFORE, the Parties, through their counsel of record, hereby STIPULATE and 

AGREE that the deadlines in the Order are amended as follows:
