WHEREAS, Plaintiffs filed the Complaint on June 14, 2013;

WHEREAS, Plaintiffs served Defendant with the Complaint on June 19, 2013;

WHEREAS, the Parties agreed and stipulated to extend that response date by 28 days to August 7, 2013 and this Court ordered that extension on July 3, 2013;

WHEREAS, Defendant filed and Answer and Counterclaim on August 7, 2013;

WHEREAS, the Parties previously agreed and stipulated to extend Plaintiffs' deadline to file and serve a response to Defendant's Counterclaim ("Response Deadline") by a cumulative 133 days to December 24, 2013; and this Court ordered those extensions on August 29, 2013, September 25, 2013, October 18, 2013, November 7, 2013 and December 10, 2013;

WHEREAS, the Parties agreed and stipulated to extend the date to serve initial disclosures ("Disclosures Deadline") by a cumulative 113 days to December 24, 2013; and this Court ordered that extension on August 29, 2013, September 25, 2013, October 18, 2013, November 7, 2013 and December 10, 2013;

WHEREAS, the Parties now agree and stipulate to further extend the Disclosures Deadline and the Response Deadline by an additional 28 days to January 21, 2014;

NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree and stipulate to extensions of time up to and including January 21, 2014 for Plaintiffs to file and serve a response to the Counterclaim in this action and for the Parties to serve their initial disclosures.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
