The Court recently issued a Status (Pretrial Scheduling) Order which set the trial date in 

this matter for August 19, 2008. However, discovery is set to close on November 27, 2007, 

more than eight months prior to the scheduled trial date. The parties have been diligent in this 

matter and have engaged in written discovery. Moreover, the parties are working to set the 

depositions of Plaintiffs FRCP 30 (b)(6) designees. The parties, however, anticipate that 

additional discovery may be necessary - including out of state discovery. 

In light of the foregoing, the parties request a continuance of the aforementioned 

discovery and expert discovery deadlines. The continuance is warranted given the delay 

between the current discovery cut-off and trial, to avoid duplication of work and for purposes of 

judicial economy and efficiency.
