SUPPLEMENTAL STIPULATION AND ORDER TO EXTEND DEADLINE FOR FILING A RESPONSIVE PLEADING

MORRISON C. ENGLAND, Jr., Chief District Judge.

WHEREAS the parties to this action previously stipulated to stay of this action to explore resolving this matter informally;

WHEREAS the Court issued an order staying the action to October 31, 2015 and requiring Defendant to file a responsive pleading by November 23, 2015 if the parties had not resolved the dispute;

WHEREAS Defendant has prepared for filing a counter-claim which refers to materials previously designated by the parties as "confidential", potentially requiring Defendant to file its counter-claim under seal;

WHEREAS the parties are meeting and conferring on whether the specific information referenced in the counter-claim should still be designated confidential and thereby require the cross-complaint to be filed under seal.

WHEREAS the parties previously asked the Court to extend the previous filing deadline from November 23, 2015 to November 30, 2015 so that the parties could complete their meet and confer attempts.

WHEREAS the Court extended the previous filing deadline from November 23, 2015 to November 30, 2015 in conformity with the parties' request.

WHEREAS counsel for Praetorian Insurance Company has not been able to complete conferring with his client sufficiently in advance of the November 30, 2015 filing deadline due to delays caused by the holiday season.

WHEREAS, subject to the Court issuing an order consistent with the terms of this stipulation, the parties, by and between their respective attorneys, stipulate as follows:

1. The parties agree that Defendant will file its responsive pleading by December 7, 2015;

2. The parties will meet and file a Joint Scheduling Conference Statement no later than December 16, 2015.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
