JOINT STIPULATION AND ORDER TO EXTEND DISCOVERY

All of the parties hereto, and for good cause described in this stipulation, and in accord with Local Rule 26-4, the parties hereby request this Honorable Court adopt and approve this stipulated extension to the discovery plan, and continue the discovery deadlines as requested herein.

I. LOCAL RULE 6-1 IS SATISFIED

This is the fourth request for extension of discovery deadlines filed by the parties. On November 24, 2014, the parties filed their third joint stipulation seeking an extension of discovery. Pursuant to this court's order dated December 1, 2014, this Honorable Court granted in part the requested extension to enlarge deadlines. In said order, the court noted that the following dates would govern for purposes of discovery:

1. Discovery Cutoff Date: May 11, 2015 2. Motions to amend pleadings and add parties: May 13, 2014 3. Expert Designations: March 12, 2015 4. Rebuttal Expert Designations: April 13, 2015 5. Interim Status Reports: March 12, 2015 6. Dispositive Motions: June 10, 2015 7. Joint Pre-Trial Order: July 10, 2015

The parties have diligently participated in discovery since the third extension was granted and prior thereto, as noted in the first and second joint stipulations to extend discovery. Currently, the Plaintiffs and Defendant Jel Events, Inc settlement was reached through armslength negotiations. The settling parties' counsel began negotiating the settlement on March 6, 2015. On March 10, 2015, the Plaintiffs reached a settlement with Defendant Jel Events, Inc, conditioned upon a good faith determination by the courts, for $7,500. On March 11, 2015, counsel for Defendant Jel Events, Inc filed a Motion for Determination of Good Faith Settlement and for Order Shortening Time. At this time, the parties are awaiting a response from the courts regarding the good faith determination.

The parties had agreed to a stay of discovery in order to engage in settlement negotiations. Though efforts were taken to settle between the Plaintiffs and the Defendants Bob Gail Enterprises, Inc and MGM, the parties were unable to reach a settlement. As a result, the parties have scheduled to conduct a mediation on Tuesday, May 19, 2015 at Bongiovi Dispute Resolutions located at 9510 West Sahara Avenue, Las Vegas, Nevada. All parties have agreed. Moreover, Plaintiff's counsel and Plaintiffs Jacqueline Escobar & John aka Jack Silva will return to Las Vegas from Massachusetts to attend the mediation.

Although the parties agreed to a stay of discovery, all parties felt requesting a continuance would adequately provide the parties with additional time, in case a settlement was not reached on May 19, 2015. As a result, all parties agreed and requested that the tracking deadlines be enlarged by 90 days to allow time for the parties to mediate, depositions and completion of discovery.

The instant request comports with LR 6.1, in that no request is currently being made after the expiration of the specified period noted in this court's order of December 1, 2014.

II. LOCAL RULE 26-4 IS SATISFIED

The instant request to extend discovery satisfies the requisites of LR 26-4. Preliminarily, this stipulation and order is received by the court no later than twenty one (21) days before the expiration of the subject deadlines. The dispositive motion and joint pretrial order deadlines are all more than twenty one (21) days from the filing of the instant stipulation and order.1

Additionally, good cause exists for the extension. All parties have agreed and are scheduled to conduct a mediation on Tuesday, May 19, 2015, with the hopes of settling and resolving this matter. Unfortunately, if the parties are unable to reach a settlement agreement on May 19, 2015, the parties would require additional time to schedule depositions and to complete discovery. As a result, all parties have requested that the tracking deadlines be extended 90 days, to which all parties have agreed. Listed below is a statement specifying the discovery completed in this case:

In addition to the above referenced discovery, the following depositions have occurred in Las Vegas, Nevada through April 6, 2015:

• Dr. Abraham Mintz completed • Dr. Mark Godfrey completed • Dr. Solomon Aordkian completed

In addition, to the above discovery, subpoena duces tecums were forwarded to other treating providers which were discovered during the depositions conducted in Boston. These providers' requests are presently pending, which include:

• White Plains Radiology • Hartford Hospital — Head Injury Clinic

Lastly, in addition to the above subpoenas which have been served and presently pending, information regarding Plaintiff, Jacqueline Escobar's prior motor vehicle accident from the following:

• Scott Barron & Associates, P.C. in Howard Beach, New York • Rojas Law Firm, in Hartford, Connecticut

Depositions of the experts will likewise need to be taken. It is anticipated that the depositions will occur within the next 3 to 4 months, if the parties have not reached a settlement agreement on May 19, 2015. Aside from medical experts, other safety related experts, if any, need to be disclosed, review necessary deposition testimony, prepare reports and be deposed.

It is required under 26(4)(c) to define why the deadlines were not satisfied. The parties have worked cooperatively together and have expended significant effort to undertake discovery in this case. Unfortunately, due to all parties scheduling conflicts the mediation was scheduled after the discovery cutoff date May 11, 2015 and given the physicians scheduling conflicts, procurement for additional records, discovery of additional physicians needing to be deposed; all remaining discovery could not be completed within the 90 day window afforded by the prior order. None of the parties have cancelled discovery, nor undertaken in any way to postpone the discovery process for delay and all parties have fully cooperated to move forward. All parties are working cooperatively to mediate, and finalize discovery in a timely and expedited manner, but given the time restraints, scheduling conflicts, volume of discovery and the logistics of traveling from east to west coast, additional time is respectfully required and requested.

Finally, under LR 26(4), it is necessary to articulate a proposed schedule for completing all remaining discovery. Given that mediation has been schedule after the discovery cutoff date and the amount of discovery still needing to be done, it is requested that an additional 90 days be afforded for discovery. The following deadlines are requested.

1. Discovery Cutoff Date: August 10, 2015 2. Motions to amend pleadings and add parties: May 13, 2014 4. Rebuttal Expert Designations: April 13, 2015 5. Interim Status Reports: June 11, 2015 6. Dispositive Motions: September 9, 2015 7. Joint Pre-Trial Order: October 9, 2015

The parties hereby stipulated to the proposed changes in the discovery deadlines.
