AND TO RESET ALL CORRESPONDING DISCOVERY DEADLINES 

THIS MATTER came before the Court on June 8, 2022 at 9:30 a.m., and upon the Agreed 

Erik P. Kimball, Judge 

United States Bankruptcy Court _____________________________________________________________________________

ORDERED in the Southern District of Florida on June 13, 2022.

Case 21-01155-MAM Doc 29 Filed 06/16/22 Page 3 of 8
Motion to Continue the Pre-trial Conference Scheduled for June 8, 2022 to September 1, 2022, and 

to Reset All Corresponding Discovery Deadlines (DE #26; the “Motion”). The Court, having 

reviewed the Motion, noting an agreement of the parties, and being otherwise fully advised in the 

premises, finds good cause exists to continue the Pre-Trial Conference, and to reset all corresponding

discovery deadlines. It is therefore ORDERED AND ADJUDGED: 

1. The Motion is GRANTED as provided herein.

2. Attendance at Pre-Trial Conference. Unless judgement has been entered or the Court

advises the parties that the pretrial conference has been continued or canceled, counsel for all parties 

(or the parties themselves, if unrepresented) must appear at the pretrial conference. 

3. Pretrial Conference Date and Trial Date. The pretrial conference will be held at:

Date: September 14, 2022 

Time: 9:30 a.m. 

Location: United States Bankruptcy Court, The Flagler Waterview Building, 

1515 North Flagler Driver, 8th Floor, Courtroom B, West Palm Beach, 

Florida 33401.

choose to attend the hearing remotely using the services of Zoom Video Communications, Inc. 

(“Zoom”), which permits remote participation by video or by telephone. To participate in the hearing 

remotely via Zoom (whether by video or by telephone), you must register in advance no later than 

3:00 p.m., one business day before the date of the hearing. To register, click on or enter the following

Case 21-01155-MAM Doc 29 Filed 06/16/22 Page 4 of 8
4. CONTINUANCES. Continuances of the pretrial conference or trial or any deadlines

set forth in this order must be requested by written motion. Any request for continuance or 

amendment to this order must set forth the status of discovery, including exchange of disclosures 

required under this order, must state the reasons why the party or parties seek a continuance, and must 

state whether the client and other parties consent to a continuance. The stipulation of all parties is not 

sufficient grounds, standing alone, for a continuance. 

5. DEADLINE FOR DISPOSITIVE MOTIONS. The deadline for filing motions for

judgment on the pleadings or motions for summary judgment is fourteen days before the pretrial 

conference. Absent good cause, failure to file and serve such a motion in a timely manner constitutes 

waiver of the right to do so. All dispositive motions, responses, and replies must comply with the 

page limits set forth in the Scheduling Order. Any motion for summary judgment must also comply

opposing party’s disclosure of evidence that gives rise to the need for the expert, 

whichever is later. The party disclosing an expert witness must, within 14 days of the 

disclosure, provide to each opposing party a written report prepared and signed by the 

witness as required by Rule 26(a)(2)(B), Fed. R. Civ. P.

be made in writing, signed, served, and, except for copies of exhibits and expert witness 

reports, be filed with the Court. 

7. SUMMARIES TO PROVE CONTENT. If any party intends to offer in evidence at

trial a summary, chart or calculation to prove content as permitted by Federal Rule of Evidence 1006, 

that party must provide to the other parties a notice of the location(s) of the books, records, and the 

like, from which each summary has been made, and the reasonable times when they may be inspected 

and copied by adverse parties, as soon as practicable but in no event later than seven days before the 

pretrial conference. 

8. DISCOVERY. The parties must complete discovery not later than 14 days before

the pretrial conference, except that any previously scheduled depositions may be completed up to one 

business day before the pretrial conference. The Court will allow discovery after the pretrial 

conference only upon a showing of good cause. 

9. JOINT PRETRIAL STIPULATION WHERE ALL PARTIES REPRESENTED BY

COUNSEL. If any party is not represented by counsel in this proceeding as of the date of entry of 

this Order, this paragraph will not apply. All parties to this proceeding must meet (in person, if 

geographically feasible, and otherwise by video conference or by telephone) not later than 14 days 

before the pretrial conference to confer on the preparation of a Joint Pretrial Stipulation in 

substantially the form of Local Form 63C. The plaintiff must file the fully executed Joint Pretrial 

Stipulation no later than one business day before the pretrial conference. The Court will not accept 

unilateral statements and will strike sua sponte any such submissions. Should any of the parties fail 

to cooperate in the preparation of the Joint Pretrial Stipulation, any other party may file a motion 

requesting an order to show cause why such party or parties (and/or their counsel) should not be held 

in contempt and sanctioned for failure to comply with this order.

bring at least one paper copy of its exhibit register for the Court’s use, and at least two hard-copy 

books of all its exhibits, for witnesses and the Court. 

12. FINAL ARGUMENT. At the conclusion of the trial, in lieu of final argument, the
