In the Matter of Global Aircraft Interiors, Inc. 

Docket No. FAA-2014-0324 

Case No. 2011EA110043 

Administrative Law Judge J.E. Sullivan 

AGENCY'S REQUEST FOR POSTPONEMENT OF LITIGATION SCHEDULING 

CONFERENCE 

COMES NOW the Agency, by counsel, and hereby requests a postponement of the 

litigation scheduling conference that is scheduled for September 30, 2013. The basis for 

this request that that the Agency's representative, the undersigned, is scheduled to attend an 

all-day continuing legal education (CLE) course that day. This training opportunity just 

came up and Agency counseling was just notified over this past weekend that he would be 

enrolled in this course. Because of funding limitations within the Agency, it is unknown 

whether Agency counsel will have the opportunity to take this course at some time in the 

future. It is also noted the Agency submitted its proposed discovery schedule without the 

input of Respondent, because Respondent's counsel did not get back to Agency counsel to 

inform the latter as to whether Respondent concurs. Postponing the conference would allow 

the parties more time to try to come up with a mutually agreeable proposed discovery 

schedule. 
Agency counsel has conferred with Respondent's counsel, and the following are 

mutually convenient proposed alternate dates: October 6, 2014 (in the afternoon), October 

7, 2014 (any time 11:00 a.m. or thereafter), or October 8, 2014 (in the morning). The 

Agency's representative will not be available on October 9, 10, 15, or 16. Respondent's 

counsel will not be available from October 22, through November 4, 2014. 

WHEREFORE, the Agency requests that the litigation scheduling conference be postponed 

to October 6, 2014 (in the afternoon), October 7, 20 14 (any time 11 :00 a.m. or thereafter), 

or October 8, 2014 (in the morning). 

Respectfully submitted,
