(FIRST REQUEST)

JAMES C. MAHAN, District Judge.

Pursuant to LR IA 6-1, Plaintiff TONY SHAW ("Plaintiff") and Defendants NP SANTA FE, LLC DBA SANTA FE STATION HOTEL & CASINO, STATION CASINOS, LLC, AND RED ROCK RESORTS, INC. ("Defendants"), by and through their respective counsel of record, hereby stipulate and request that this Court extend the deadline to file the Plaintiff's Response to Defendants' Motion to Dismiss (ECF No. 9) Plaintiff's Amended Complaint (ECF No.8) filed on July 30, 2018 by thirty (30) days from the current deadline of August 13, 2018 up to and including September 12, 2018. This is the first stipulation for extension of time to file response.

This Request for an extension of time is not sought for any improper purpose or other purpose of delay. This request for extension is based upon the following:

Counsel for Plaintiff initiated this request due to competing deadlines, including an answering brief in Clark County Office of the Coroner/Medical Examiner v. Las Vegas Review-Journal, Nevada Supreme Court Case No. 74604, due on August 13, 2018. Counsel for Plaintiff also has a settlement conference set for August 14, 2018 in Las Vegas Review-Journal v. City of Henderson, Nevada Supreme Court Case No. 75407.

The parties are also actively discussing potential settlement resolution, and wish to avoid incurring unnecessary fees and costs.

WHEREFORE, the parties respectfully request that this Court extend the deadline to file the Plaintiff's Response to Defendants' Motion to Dismiss (ECF No. 9) Plaintiff's Amended Complaint (ECF No.8) by thirty (30) days from the current deadline of August 13, 2018 up to and including September 12, 2018.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
