GEORGE FOLEY, Jr., Magistrate Judge. District Judge.
Plaintiff My Health, Inc. and Defendant SelectHealth, Inc. have stipulated to, and respectfully request that the Court enter an order providing for, a 45-day extension of the deadline for SelectHealth to respond to My Health's complaint from March 16, 2015 to April 30, 2015. This is the second stipulation and request for an extension of this deadline and the second overall request for an extension in this case. The initial response deadline was February 12, 2015, and the Court entered an order extending that deadline to March 16, 2015 pursuant to the parties' stipulation. See Dkt. 11.
After the Court granted the first extension the parties have actively pursued good-faith negotiations to settle this dispute. The parties are hopeful that a settlement can be reached before either party or the Court expends further substantial resources on the litigation of this dispute. But due to the pace of negotiation during the last four weeks and the need to conduct further settlement discussions, settlement before the existing March 16 response deadline is not feasible.
The parties' agreed-upon second extension promotes judicial economy and ultimately the interests of justice by providing additional time to facilitate settlement before the parties and Court devote additional resources to the litigation of this matter. The agreed upon extension should not unduly delay the litigation of this matter. Accordingly, a second extension of the deadline for SelectHealth to respond to My Health's complaint to April 30, 2015 is warranted.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
