The parties have agreed to mediate this matter with the Hon. Trevor Atkin (Ret.) on 22 February 21, 2024. 23 Discovery Remaining 24 25 26 27 28 1. The parties continue participating in written discovery. Specifically, the parties are in the process of meeting and conferring regarding supplemental discovery responses that were served by Defendants following the Court’s entry of the protective order on July 18, 2023. There are at least five (5) separate sets of written discovery at issue between the parties. 8 Case 2:21-cv-02167-RFB-DJA Document 119 Filed 12/18/23 Page 9 of 14 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 2. The depositions of Plaintiffs Alyssa Dillard and Seth Dillard are currently scheduled to occur on December 21, 2023. 3. The depositions of Plaintiffs Ray Marx and Traci Marx are currently scheduled to occur on January 9, 2024. 4. Resolution of the issues regarding supplemental discovery responses to written discovery described above is a necessary precondition to plaintiffs proceeding with depositions, particularly corporate representative depositions pursuant to FRCP 30(b)(6). As of the date of this application, the parties anticipate potentially taking the following fact depositions: • Nyda Dell Marx; • Rule 30(b)(6) deposition of Homesite • Heather Ing (Thetford, LLC employee); • Keith Stickley (former Norcold, LLC employee); • John FitzSimons (former DKM/Thetford/Norcold officer); 15 • Rule 30(b)(6) depositions of Norcold LLC, Thetford LLC, and DKM; 16 • Rule 30(b)(6) deposition of CWI, Inc., Camping World of Henderson, 10 11 12 13 14 17 18 19 Camping World, Inc. 5. The parties may take the depositions of any and all other witnesses garnered through discovery. 20 6. The parties have disclosed expert witnesses pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26. 21 7. The parties will take expert depositions. 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 Why Remaining Discovery Has Not Yet Been Completed Good cause exists for the instant request for extension pursuant to Local Rule 26-3. This request for an extension of time is not sought for any improper purpose or for the purpose of delay. Rather, it is sought for the purpose of allowing the parties sufficient time to conduct discovery and adequately prepare for trial. The parties seek additional time as discovery was stayed for over 30 days pending resolution on the Defendants’ motions for protective order regarding the depositions of Mary Pouliot and Heather Ing noticed by Plaintiffs. Furthermore, 9 Case 2:21-cv-02167-RFB-DJA Document 119 Filed 12/18/23 Page 10 of 14 1 the litigation outlined above continues to give rise to complex issues and disputes that the parties 2 are attempting to resolve, including a dispute over the scope of the four Rule 30(b)(6) 3 depositions previously noticed by Plaintiffs. For these reasons, the parties jointly seek court 4 intervention to extend the deadlines as set forth below. 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 In addition, there are motions that remain pending before the Court that are intertwined with the written discovery at issue between the parties, and/or the deposition discovery anticipated by the parties. The motions include the Marx/Dillard plaintiffs’ motion to remand based on lack of diversity jurisdiction related to named Defendant Camping World of Henderson, and DKM’s motion to dismiss Plaintiff Homesite’s Third Amended Complaint, which Plaintiff Homesite opposes. Due to the pending issues and developments outlined above, the parties have not been able to proceed with pre-trial discovery and depositions at the rate they previously anticipated. Accordingly, the parties request a further modification and extension of fact discovery and other 15 trial related deadlines to allow for the opportunity to resolve the above referenced disputes so 16 that discovery and trial preparation can proceed smoothly for the benefit of all parties. 17 Extension of Modification of the Discovery Plan and Scheduling Order Local Rule 26-3 governs modifications or extension of the Discovery Plan and 18 19 Scheduling Order. Any stipulation or motion to extend or modify that Discovery Plan and 20 Scheduling Order must be made no later than twenty-one (21) days before the expiration of the 21 subject deadline and must comply fully with LR 26-3. 22 This is the fourth request for extension of time in this matter. The parties respectfully 23 submit that the reasons set forth above constitute compelling reasons for the extension. 24 The following is a list of the current discovery deadlines and parties’ proposed extended 25 26 27 28 deadlines: /// /// 10 Case 2:21-cv-02167-RFB-DJA Document 119 Filed 12/18/23 Page 11 of 14 1 2 Scheduled Event Fact Discovery Current Deadline Monday January 8, 2024 New Deadline April 15, 2024 3 Expert Discovery Monday, January 8, 2024 May 15, 2024 Tuesday, February 13, 2024 February 29, 2024 6 Mediation Completion Date 7 Dispositive Motions Tuesday, February 13, 2024 May 30, 2024 Joint Pretrial Order To be set pursuant to LR 26-1 (both cases) To be set pursuant to LR 26-1 4 5 8 9 10 11 WHEREFORE, the parties respectfully request that this Court extend fact discovery and other deadlines in accordance with the table above. 12 13 14 Dated: December 18, 2023 15 GROTEFELD HOFFMANN LLP /s/ Lilla Shkolnikov LILLA SHKOLNIKOV Attorneys for Plaintiff Homesite Insurance Company 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 Dated: December 18, 2023 LAW OFFICES OF TERRENCE A.
