Stipulated Motion to Extend Case Deadlines
In accordance with Ohio Civ. R. 16(B)(4) and 6(B), all parties to this action hereby
stipulate and move the Court to extend the case deadlines as set forth below.
The good cause for the request is that all parties held off on starting fact discovery
until the Court issued its rulings on the several motions to dismiss and motions for judgment
on the pleadings filed by defendants. The parties did not want to expend effort and fees for
discovery on issues that may have been mooted by the Court's rulings. On August 8, 2023,
the Court denied all pending dispositive motions. Thus, the parties are now beginning fact
discovery. The parties, however, need more time than the current case schedule allows to
complete their work. They, therefore, have conferred and agreed to the following new case
deadlines.
Event Current Date Proposed New Date
Fact Discovery Deadline 9/14/23 4/15/24
Plaintiff's Expert Report 10/14/23 5/15/24
Defendants' Expert Report 12/14/23 7/15/24
MSJ Deadline 1/30/24 8/15/24
Trial Date 5/13/24 12/1/24
Electronically Filed 09/12/2023 15:14 / MOTION / CV 22 961394 / Confirmation Nbr. 2961564 / CLSLP
32489562.3
Because these new dates are stipulated, no party would be prejudiced. Furthermore,
the time periods between deadlines matches the periods provided in the Court's original
Scheduling Order.
For these reasons, the parties respectfully request that the Court grant this stipulated
motion and issue a revised case schedule.
Dated: September 12, 2023 Respectfully submitted,
