STIPULATION AND REQUEST
Whereas the non-expert discovery cutoff in this matter is October 31, 2014; and Whereas Defendant has moved the Court to take a total of thirteen (13) depositions, including two after the discovery cutoff; and
Whereas Plaintiff served Defendant with supplemental disclosures on September 8, 2014 naming two witnesses not previously disclosed on its prior initial disclosures, and Defendant served Plaintiff with supplemental disclosures on October 2, 2014 naming at least three witnesses not disclosed in its prior initial disclosures; and
Whereas the parties already have twelve (12) depositions noticed and scheduled between now and the discovery cutoff for October 21, 22, 23, 27, 28, 29, 30 and 31, 2014;
Therefore, the parties to this matter, by and through their counsel of record, hereby stipulate and request that each party be permitted to take up to three depositions on or before December 5, 2014 on dates mutually acceptable to the parties and the deponents. Counsel for Plaintiff has previously informed Defendant that she is on leave and out of the office from November 3 until November 17, 2014.
The parties further stipulate that each party may exceed the ten (10) deposition limit under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 30, to take a total of thirteen (13) depositions. Upon entry of this stipulated order, Defendant will take its Motion to Extend the Ten-Deposition Limit of FRCP 30 and to Extend the Time to Take the Additional Depositions off calendar, and Plaintiff will not file an opposition brief to that Motion.
The stipulation to allow up to three depositions per party on or before December 5, 2014 will not impact any other case management dates. The last day to hear dispositive motions is April 9, 2015. The final pretrial conference is June 18, 2015, and trial set to begin July 6, 2015.
The parties have had one, one-month extension of the discovery cutoff, from September 30 to October 31, 2014.
It is so stipulated.
