DALE A. DROZD, District Judge.

JOINT STIPULATION

On December 29, 2016, Plaintiff LORI CASEY ("Plaintiff") filed a Motion to Strike Defendant DNOW, L.P.'s ("Defendant") Rebuttal Expert Witness Disclosures, to be heard on February 1, 2017. On January 6, 2017, the Court continued the hearing on Plaintiff's Motion to February 7, 2017.

THEREFORE, Plaintiff LORI CASEY and Defendant DNOW, L.P., by and through their undersigned counsel, hereby stipulate as follows:

1. The hearing on Plaintiff's Motion to Strike Defendant's Rebuttal Expert Witness Disclosures shall be continued to March 7, 2017.

2. This Joint Stipulation may be executed in counterparts. Facsimile or electronic signatures shall have the same force and effect as originals.

SO STIPULATED AND AGREED.
