Plaintiff JEROME HILL and Defendants FAIRFIELD POLICE DEPARTMENT, CITY OF

1) That on March 7, 2016 this Court issued a scheduling order setting, inter alia, the cutoff for 

fact discovery for December 12, 2016 and the cutoff for expert discovery on February 13, 2017.

3) The parties have made significant progress in their base discovery, including the depositions 

of the parties and percipient witnesses.

4) The plaintiff and defendant, through counsel, have extensively met and conferred regarding a 

Defendant request for a Rule 35 psychiatric and psychological exam of plaintiff. Although the 

parties have met and conferred in good faith, they have not been able to reach accord as to certain 

terms of the proposed exam. 

5) The volume of the expert discovery required has limited the parties’ ability to complete all the 

necessary expert discovery within the deadline set. A 90-day extension of time will allow the parties 

adequate time to conduct full and complete discovery in this case.

6) Extending the deadline for expert discovery will not impact any other dates previously set by 

this Court; no trial date has been set.

7) Therefore, the parties jointly request that the expert discovery cutoff now set for February 13, 

2017, be continued to May 14, 2017.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
