WHEREAS, at the February 13, 2007 Scheduling Conference, the Court set a summary 

judgment briefing schedule. 

WHEREAS on May 24, 2007, pursuant to the parties’ stipulation, the Court continued 

the summary judgment schedule by ninety days, pursuant to which plaintiff John Deere 

Insurance Company n/k/a Sentry Select Insurance Company (“Plaintiff”) must file its summary 

judgment motion by September 6, 2007 and Universal Underwriters Insurance Company 

(“Universal”) must file its cross-motion for summary judgment by September 19, 2007;

judgment motion by December 4, 2007 and Universal Underwriters Insurance Company 

(“Universal”) must file its cross-motion for summary judgment by December 18, 2007; 

WHEREAS, Plaintiff has filed a Motion to Stay the Proceedings Pursuant to Plaintiff’s 

First Amended Complaint and this Motion will be heard on December 7, 2007. As such, this
