MARTINEZ 1 2 3 4 5 6 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT WESTERN DISTRICT OF WASHINGTON AT SEATTLE 7 8 AVALON CONDOMINIUM HOMEOWNER’S ASSOCIATION, a Washington Non-Profit 10 Corporation, 9 11 STIPULATED MOTION AND ORDER TO CONTINUE DEADLINE FOR FILING MOTIONS RELATED TO DISCOVERY AND DEADLINE FOR DISCOVERY TO BE COMPLETED Plaintiff, 12 v. 13 14 CENTURY SURETY COMPANY, an Ohio Corporation; and DOE INSURANCE 15 COMPANIES 1–10, 16 19 20 21 22 23 NOTE ON MOTION CALENDAR: SEPTEMBER 24, 2021 Defendants. 17 18 NO. 2:20-cv-01430-RSM I. STIPULATED MOTION Come now, Plaintiff Avalon Condominium Homeowner’s Association (“Association”) and Defendant Century Surety Company (“Century”), by and through their respective counsel, and stipulate to this motion for a continuance of the deadlines for filing motions related to discovery and for discovery to be completed. Counsel for the Association and Century have met and conferred and propose an extension of the following deadlines: 24 25 26 Deadline for Filing Motions Related to Discovery Discovery Completed By Current Deadline 10/01/2021 Proposed Deadline 10/15/2021 11/01/2021 11/15/2021 27 STIPULATED MOTION AND ORDER TO CONTINUE DEADLINE FOR FILING MOTIONS RELATED TO DISCOVERY AND DEADLINE FOR DISCOVERY TO BE COMPLETED - 1 STEIN, SUDWEEKS & STEIN, PLLC 2701 1ST AVE., SUITE 430 SEATTLE, WA 98121 PHONE 206.388.0660 FAX 206.286.2660 Dockets.Justia.com 1 2 II. GOOD CAUSE SHOWN Pursuant to LCR 16(b)(6), a scheduling order may be modified “only for good cause and 3 with the judge’s consent.” Good cause exists here because the parties have agreed to enter into 4 mediation of this matter on September 28, 2021. For purposes of judicial economy, the parties 5 propose that the deadlines for filing motions related to discovery and for discovery each be 6 extended two weeks to allow the parties to prepare discovery motions and take depositions after the 7 mediation, if necessary. No previous extensions of time have been requested or granted by the 8 Court in this matter, and this extension is not made for purposes of delay, but rather to permit the 9 parties additional time in an attempt to resolve this matter amicably without incurring substantial 10 further costs or requiring additional time and resources on behalf of the Court. The parties 11 respectfully request that the Court extend the currently scheduled deadlines as set forth above. A 12 proposed order is included herewith. 13 STEIN, SUDWEEKS & STEIN, PLLC 14 /s/ Jessica R. Burns 15 Jerry H. Stein, WSBA 27721 Justin D. Sudweeks, WSBA 28755 16 Daniel J.
