STIPULATION TO CONTINUE

DISCOVERY CUT-OFF AND TRIAL

DATES AND [PROPOSED] ORDER

Complaint Filed: June 30, 2014

John Verber was recently retained to represent Sgt. Darrin Downum in this matter.

Currently, there is a settlement conference scheduled for Tuesday, February 3, 2015. Since

Mr. Verber is new to the case and needs adequate time to prepare for meaningful settlement

discussions and because he will be out of the country from January 31, 2015 to February 17,

2015 to attend his son’s wedding in China, the parties stipulated to continue the settlement

conference with Judge Beeler to April 14, 2015 (a Stipulation and Proposed Order has been

filed with Judge Beeler).

In light of Mr. Verber’s entry into this case and in anticipation of the settlement

conference being rescheduled, the parties respectfully request that the Court vacate the current

pre-trial and trial dates and adopt the proposed dates listed below. This will allow the parties to

adequately prepare for and participate in meaningful settlement discussions and possibly avoid

unnecessary discovery.
