STIPULATION EXTENDING DISCOVERY, EXPERT DISCLOSURE AND MOTION FILING DEADLINES; 

[PROPOSED] ORDER RE: SAME

2

The parties base their stipulation on good cause. To

explain, the parties have engaged in significant discovery in

this action, despite counsel for all parties facing consistently

impacted schedules. More time is necessary, however, for

discovery (including depositions) to be completed. As a result,

the parties have not yet been able to provide their respective

experts with all necessary information prior to their preparing

and disclosing pending reports.

In addition, counsel for defendant has been working with an

expert locator service since late last autumn with respect to

locating potential standard of care and causation experts

regarding medical malpractice claims arising in a prison setting. 

Despite persistent efforts, however, defendant has only recently

located both such experts in this regard. Further, counsel for

plaintiff has recently needed to travel away from the office to

attend to family health matters. 

Accordingly, the parties stipulate and agree to extend this

action’s discovery, expert disclosure and motion filing deadlines

as specified below, and base it on the above-stated good cause. 

The parties request the Court to endorse this stipulation by way

of formal order.
