STIPULATION AND ORDER RE CASE MANAGEMENT Trial

This Joint Stipulation to Modify the Court's Case Management Scheduling Order is submitted by all parties to this action. Said parties respectfully request that the Court modify its Case Management Scheduling Order of May 14, 2015 to provide for a new date for exchange and filing of a Joint Pre-trial Statement, motions in limine, proposed voir dire questions, and jury instructions.

RECITALS

A. On May 14, 2015, the Court issued its Case Management Scheduling Order providing for a trial date of February 29, 2016. In that Order the Court set a Pretrial Conference for February 11, 2016. B. As per the Court's "GUIDELINES FOR FINAL PRETRIAL CONFERENCE IN JURY CASES", the parties are currently required to exchange exhibits, lodge with the court a Joint Pretrial Statement, file and serve motions in limine on or before Monday February 1, 2016, and to file proposed voir dire questions, jury instructions, verdict forms and oppositions to motions in limine on or before Friday, February 5, 2016. C. On January 21, 2016, the Court referred this matter for a Mandatory Settlement Conference before Magistrate Jacqueline Scott Corley. That Mandatory Settlement Conference is now scheduled for Monday, February 1, 2016. D. The parties intend to engage in good faith settlement discussions and are optimistic that, with Magistrate Corley's assistance, this matter may be resolved by way of settlement. E. With the Court's permission, the parties respectfully request that the pretrial deadlines set forth in the Court's initial Case Management Scheduling Order and the Court's Standing Order and Guidelines be extended for a short period of time after the Mandatory Settlement Conference, but in advance of the Pretrial Conference so that the parties may devote their time and attention to efforts to resolve the case and avoid incurring the time and expense of pretrial preparation if, in fact, a settlement can be reached.

NOW THEREFORE, the parties respectfully stipulate and request that the Court order that

(1) the last day for the parties to exchange exhibits, lodge with the court a Joint Pretrial Statement, file and serve motions in limine shall be continued from February 1, 2016 until February 4, 2016; (2) the last day for filing proposed voir dire questions, jury instructions, verdict forms and oppositions to motions in limine be continued from Friday, February 5, 2016 until Tuesday, February 9, 2016. (3) the Pretrial Conference shall remain as scheduled on February 11, 2016 and all other pretrial deadlines shall remain in place.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
