Frederickson of ANGELO, KILDAY & KILDUFF and hereby submit this stipulation and proposed order requesting that the Court vacate the pretrial conference currently set for ///// 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 March 15, 2010 and the trial scheduled for April 12, 2010 in light of the Defendants' pending motions for summary judgment. On June 18, 2009, this Court issued an order on Plaintiff's motion to continue trial and pretrial dates whereby the Court ordered dispositive motions to be filed by February 24, 2010, a pretrial conference scheduled for March 15, 2010, and a trial date of April 12, 2010 (Doc. 133). On February 23, 2010, Defendant David Runnels filed his motion for summary judgment currently set for hearing on March 31, 2010 (Docs. 154, 155). Defendant M.S. Evans filed his motion for summary judgment on February 23, 2010 currently set for hearing on March 31, 2010 (Doc. 153). On the same date, Defendants Jeffrey Rohlfing, M.D. and A. Gillett filed their motions for summary judgment also set for March 31, 2010 (Doc. 156). On February 24, 2010, Defendant K. Baughman filed her motion for summary judgment set for hearing on March 31, 2010 (Docs.157-161). Currently, Defendant Jeff Briddle's motion for summary judgment (Doc.145) is set for hearing on March 10, 2010 although Plaintiff has recently filed an ex parte application to continue the hearing to March 31, 2010 as well (Doc. 162). Given the hearings on Defendants' motions for summary judgment will be heard (with the possible exception of Defendant Briddle) on March 31, 2010, over two weeks after the scheduled pretrial conference and twelve (12) days before the scheduled start of trial, all parties to this action have agreed that good cause exists to vacate the pretrial conference and trial dates, and request that these dates be rescheduled after the Court issues its rulings on these dispositive motions. Otherwise, the parties will be forced to expend great time and expenses preparing for trial while their motions for summary judgment are still pending. The parties believe that vacating the pretrial conference and trial dates will best serve the interests of justice and judicial economy. /// /// /// /// /// Stipulation and Order to Vacate Pretrial Conference and Trial Dates Page 2 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties that the March 15, 2010 pretrial conference and April 12, 2010 trial date be vacated and rescheduled after disposition of Defendants' pending motions for summary judgment.
