STIPULATION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME

(SECOND REQUEST)

GEORGE FOLEY, JR., Magistrate Judge.

Pursuant to LR 6-1 and LR 26-4, Plaintiff and Defendants Trinity Financial Services, LLC and Trinity Recovery Services, LLC (collectively, "Defendants"), by and through their respective counsel of record, hereby stipulate and request that this Court extend the discovery deadline by thirty (30) days. At this time, the parties are not seeking an extension of any other discovery deadlines but reserve the right to request in the future depending on adjudication of Plaintiff's Motion for Leave to Amend, ECF Dkt. 8. In support of this Stipulation and Request, the parties state as follows:

I. DISCOVERY COMPLETED TO DATE

2. On August 4, 2017, Defendants filed their answers. ECF Dkt. 4, 5.

3. On September 15, 2018, Plaintiff served his Initial Disclosures.

4. On September 18, 2017, Plaintiff moved for leave to amend his complaint. ECF Dkt. 8.

5. On September 28, 2017, the Court granted the parties' stipulated protective order. ECF Dkt. 11.

6. On October 10, 2017, the Court granted the parties' stipulated discovery plan and scheduling order. ECF Dkt. 17.

9. On December 9, 2017, Plaintiff served his First Supplemental Disclosures.

10. On December 12, 2017, the parties conducted a Rule 26-7 conference regarding Defendants' responses to Plaintiff's First Set of Requests for Production and Interrogatories.

11. On January 25, 2018, Defendants provided their First Supplemental Responses to Plaintiff's First Set of Requests for Production and Interrogatories.

12. On February 9, 2018, the parties submitted an interim status report. ECF Dkt. 22.

On May 16, 2018, Plaintiff propounded deposition subpoenas and subpoenas for records on third parties Corelogic Credco, DBI Co-Investor Fund VII, LLC, Dreambuilder Investments, LLC, Land Home Financial Services, Ophrys, LLC, Stelis, LLC, Experian Information Solutions, Inc., and Trans Union, LLC.

B. Specific Description of Discovery that Remains to be Completed

1. The depositions of Defendants;

2. Depositions and discovery to any third party witnesses; and,

3. Any necessary additional written discovery.

C. Reasons Why the Remaining Discovery Was Not Completed

The parties aver, pursuant to LR 6-1, that good cause and excusable neglect exists for the requested extension. Plaintiff has set the deposition of Defendants' person most knowledgeable for June 4, 2018. However, earlier this week the parties were advised that Defendants' representative will be recovering from a medical procedure in early June and likely will be unavailable to sit for his deposition on the chosen date and time. Prior to notification, the parties had no indication that Defendant's representative would not be in a position to sit for his deposition. A 30-day extension will permit Defendant's representative sufficient time to convalesce and to arrange the deposition for a date thereafter.
