ORDER

Good cause appearing, the Proposed Stipulation regarding deadlines in Case No. 1:15-cv0717-DAD-MJS is hereby DENIED, without prejudice. The extended deadlines proposed are 

acceptable EXCEPT insofar as the Court requires a minimum period of six to eight weeks 

between the dispositive motion hearing date and the pretrial conference and also between the 

pretrial conference and the trial date. The parties are invited to submit another stipulation which

accommodates these requirements.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
