STIPULATION AND ORDER FOR EXTENSION OF REBUTTAL EXPERT DISCLOSURE DEADLINE (FIRST REQUEST)
CARLA BALDWIN CARRY, Magistrate Judge.
This is the first stipulation for an extension of time to disclose rebuttal experts. However, the parties previously stipulated (informally) to a five calendar day extension of the initial expert disclosure deadline, and disclosed that extension in open court at a hearing conducted on October 9, 2018.
This stipulation is made within 21 days prior to the expiration of the specified period for disclosing rebuttal expert witnesses.
The parties to this litigation, pursuant to LR IA 6-1 and LR II 26-4, hereby agree and stipulate to the following:
1. The disclosure of initial expert witnesses were due to be exchanged on October 10, 2018.
2. Due to the pendency of a hearing on a motion filed by Defendants to stay the litigation, which hearing occurred on October 9, 2018, the parties agreed informally to extend the deadline for disclosure of initial expert witnesses for a period of five (5) calendar days. During said hearing, the court was verbally informed by Plaintiff's counsel that the parties had agreed to extend the initial expert disclosure deadline to Monday, October 15, 2018.
3. On October 15, 2018, the parties simultaneously disclosed initial expert witnesses. Plaintiff disclosed three experts with reports, and five experts that are not required to submit reports. Defendants disclosed two experts with reports.
4. The deadline for disclosure of rebuttal expert witnesses set forth in the scheduling order currently is set for November 8, 2018.
5. Discovery is ongoing in this matter, including the recent deposition scheduling of numerous witnesses, including all experts, 30(b)(6) depositions, with several percipient witness depositions to follow.
6. The parties have agreed to a modest extension of the rebuttal expert disclosure deadline until November 19, 2018, a date that is 34 days after the date of the actual initial expert exchange in this matter.
7. The number of experts, the scope of the opinions rendered, and the relative availability of the experts for rebuttal purposes are factors supporting good cause for a modest extension of the rebuttal expert disclosure deadline.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
