STIPULATION AND ORDER CONTINUING INITIAL SCHEDULING DATES
RICARDO S. MARTINEZ, Chief District Judge.
STIPULATION
Plaintiff Austin Mutual Insurance Company, Defendants Robert Burgess and Beverage Specialists, Inc., and Defendant Lotus Lifestyle, LLC (collectively, "the Parties") through their attorneys of record, stipulate and agree that good cause exists to further extend the Initial Scheduling Dates in this action by an additional 14 days (Dkt. 5, as amended at Dkt.8).
Good cause exists to further extend the deadlines because the Parties participated in mediation on October 15, 2018 and are currently attempting to reach a settlement agreement that would resolve the claims at issue herein. The Parties believe it would be beneficial to attempt settlement at this time in lieu of engaging in initial discovery. This is the second request for a 14-day extension of these deadlines.
For these reasons, the Parties hereby agree to extend the Initial Scheduling Dates by an additional 14 days.
DATED this 17th day of October, 2018.
