JOINT MOTION TO CONTINUE CONTEMPT HEARING AND ASSOCIATED BRIEFING DEADLINES

PHILIP M. PRO, District Judge.

The parties in the above-captioned action hereby move to continue the July 21, 2014, hearing and briefing deadlines by approximately two months. As grounds for this motion, the parties state as follows:

1. Since filing its Motion for Contempt, the FTC has been obtaining additional evidence from third parties regarding Defendant Crystal Ewing's involvement in the prize promotion activities of Puzzles Unlimited, LLC, that it believes would support a compensatory sanction of approximately $2 million. The FTC has issued document subpoenas and noticed the deposition of Puzzles Unlimited and its principal, Marc Goldstein. The FTC expects that this deposition will, among other things, facilitate the admission of critical evidence.

2. In addition, the parties have embarked on settlement negotiations and believe that the requested continuance would be mutually beneficial and potentially result in resolution or narrowing of the issues.

3. Therefore, the parties are jointly requesting that this Court implement the schedule below:

a. Deadline for the FTC's supplemental submission in support of compensatory relief — July 30, 2014; b. Deadline for the Defendant's response to the FTC's submissions — August 20, 2014; c. Deadline for the FTC's reply — September 3, 2014; and d. Hearing Date in mid-to-late September (the parties are available on the following dates: September 17, 18, 23, and 24).
