CAROL MIRANDO, Magistrate Judge.
Before the Court is Plaintiff's Unopposed Motion to Extend Deadlines Set Pursuant to Case Management and Scheduling Order (Doc. 30) filed on March 13, 2015. Plaintiff requests a 120 day extension of all deadlines in the Case Management and Scheduling Order (Doc. 24) entered on August 11, 2014. Doc. 30 at 1.
This case was removed to this Court on June 3, 2014. Doc. 1. Subsequently, Defendant, Peter Radno, filed for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy on November 17, 2014 and an Order was issued to stay the case as to that Defendant only. Doc. 28 at 2. The bankruptcy was discharged on February 18, 2015 and the stay was lifted by the bankruptcy court. Doc. 30 at 2; Doc. 30-1.
