MORRISON C. ENGLAND, JR., District Judge.
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between all parties, through their designated counsel, that certain dates and other deadlines listed in the Court's Supplemental Pretrial Scheduling Order dated October 21, 2016 and subsequently modified pursuant to the Court's Order dated November 2, 2017 be continued by approximately 45 days. Good cause exists for the extension under Rule 16(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Section VIII of the Supplemental Pretrial Scheduling Order, based upon the parties' desire to participate in mediation with mediator John Bates of JAMS on December 19, 2018, following the recent completion of all non-expert discovery with the exception of a single third-party deposition that the parties are presently working together to schedule. The parties wish to mediate the matter before incurring the costs associated with expert disclosures and dispositive motions, and therefore wish to continue the associated deadlines by approximately 45 days.
Accordingly, per the instant stipulation, the parties, through their designated counsel, request that the Court's Supplemental Pretrial Scheduling Order dated October 21, 2016 and subsequently modified pursuant to the Court's Order dated November 2, 2017 be modified to incorporate the following, revised deadlines:
