• The motion to amend (#65) is GRANTED; defendant is instructed to file its amended answer within 5 days of this order
• The motion to extend the discovery and dispositive motions' deadlines (including Daubert motions) as set forth in the case management order (#67) is GRANTED as set forth below.
• The motion to compel (#69) is DENIED without prejudice for failure to comply with Local Rule 37(a) requiring parties to confer in good faith. The defendant is instructed that any subsequent motion to compel must comply with Local Rule 37(a) and must be filed no later than Friday August 3, 2012.
Parties are to bear their own costs.
