JOINT MOTION AND STIPULATION FOR TWO-WEEK STAY OF FILING DEADLINES AND ADJUDICATION OF POST-JUDGMENT MOTIONS (Second Request)
CAM FERENBACH, Magistrate Judge.
The Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") and Defendants Scott Tucker, AMG Capital Management, LLC, Level 5 Motorsports, LLC, Black Creek Capital Corporation, and Broadmoor Capital Partners (collectively, "Tucker Defendants") request that the Court stay all deadlines and the adjudication of pending post-judgment motions for two weeks (until November 17, 2016). The FTC and Tucker Defendants are currently engaged in negotiations to attempt to resolve the pending Motion for Order Directing Turnover of Assets (ECF No. 1059, "Turnover Motion"), the Motion for Appointment of a Receiver (ECF No. 1064 (filed under seal), "Receiver Motion"), and the oppositions filed thereto. In order to facilitate those discussions and the refinement of terms, the parties request that the Court not rule on the Turnover Motion or the Receiver Motion before November 18, 2016. Similarly, the parties request that the Court extend the deadline for the FTC to file its reply brief to the Receiver Motion to November 17, 2016. This is the second stipulation for an extension regarding the Turnover Motion and Receiver Motion.
The FTC and Tucker Defendants respectfully request that the Court temporarily stay existing deadlines and the adjudication of the Turnover Motion and Receiver Motion as follows:
1. On September 30, 2016, this Court entered an Order granting the FTC's summary judgment motion on Phase 2, and entered judgment against the Tucker Defendants and the Relief Defendants. Order (ECF No. 1057).
2. To facilitate post-judgment collection and enforcement of the Court's Order, the FTC filed the Turnover Motion on October 3 and the Receiver Motion on October 13. The Tucker Defendants have opposed each motion. See generally, Tucker Defendants' Response in Opposition to FTC's Motion for Order Directing Turnover of Assets (ECF No. 1061); Tucker Defendants' Opposition to Motion for Appointment of a Receiver (ECF No. 1071). Presently, only one filing deadline (October 27) remains — for the FTC's reply in support of its Receiver Motion.
3. Good cause exists to stay deadlines and adjudication. The FTC and Tucker Defendants are presently discussing possible compromises to resolve the pending Turnover Motion and Receiver Motion. If these negotiations are successful, the parties intend to submit a joint proposed order that would resolve both motions. However, a Court ruling in the midst of the parties' discussions could adversely affect the parties' negotiations. Similarly, the pending filing deadline diverts the FTC's resources away from the ongoing negotiations. Finally, a temporary stay permits the Court to conserve its scarce resources and promotes judicial economy. Thus, cause exists for a temporary stay that permits the Court to preserve its resources while the parties attempt to reach a consensual resolution.
4. The FTC and Tucker Defendants jointly request that the following deadlines govern the Turnover Motion and the Receiver Motion:
a. The deadline for the FTC to file its reply in support of its Motion for Appointment of a Receiver (ECF No. 1064 (filed under seal)) is extended to November 17, 2016;
b. Adjudication of the Motion for Appointment of a Receiver (ECF No. 1064) and the Motion for Order Directing Turnover of Assets (ECF No. 1059) is stayed until November 18, 2016; and
c. The temporary stay of deadlines and adjudication is without prejudice to further requests to extend pending deadlines and adjudication of the post-judgment motions. If this Stipulation is accepted by the Court, the previous deadlines for the FTC's reply brief (ECF Nos.
1068 and 1079) are rendered moot.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
