WHEREAS, on January 29, 2014, the Court entered a Scheduling Order setting deadlines for 

the disclosure of experts, completion of expert and non-expert discovery, filing of all motions, except 

motions for continuance, temporary restraining orders, and other emergency applications, and setting the 

Final Pretrial Conference and trial dates; 

WHEREAS, on July 22, 2014, Pallets Unlimited, LLC, filed a third-party complaint against 

OHL; 

WHEREAS, on January 16, 2015, the Court entered an order granting in part and denying in 

part OHL’s motion to dismiss Pallets Unlimited’s first amended third-party complaint against OHL; 

WHEREAS, on January 30, 2015, OHL filed its Answer to Pallets Unlimited’s first amended 

third-party complaint; 

WHEREAS, on February 24, 2015, the parties stipulated to modify the Pre-Trial Order since 

OHL had just appeared in the matter; 

WHEREAS, on July 31, 2015, the parties stipulated to modify the Pre-Trial Order to extend 

some of the discovery deadlines because a key witness in the matter was not available for deposition;

WHEREAS, on November 5, 2015, the parties stipulated to modify the Pre-Trial Order to 

extend some of the discovery deadlines;

WHEREAS, the current discovery deadline is November 30, 2015, and the parties have been 

conducting written discovery and depositions to meet that deadline. The parties believe that substantial 

discovery has been conducted close to the discovery deadline and they would need additional time to 

review the same with their clients, carriers, and experts.

WHEREAS, all parties agree that their counsel, experts, clients, and carrier representatives 

may have vacations planned for the month of December and, therefore, it would be prudent to extend 

just the expert discovery to February 1, 2016, to provide all parties sufficient time to fairly participate in 

discovery and file pre-trial motions.

NOW THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties, through 

their respective counsel and subject to the Court’s approval, that good cause has been shown and the 

Scheduling Order shall be modified as follows, subject to further modification upon a showing of good
