Town Center Drive Suite 250 Las Vegas, NV 89144 (702) 258-6665 1 1287.761 4864-1858-5012, v. 1 Dockets.Justia.com 1 Sparks”), by and through its attorneys of record, Lucian J. Greco, Esq., and Melissa 2 Ingleby, Esq., of the law firm Bremer Whyte Brown & O’Meara LLP, and for good 3 cause that the discovery deadlines in the above-entitled matter be extended by one 4 hundred twenty (120) days to allow for necessary discovery. 5 I. 6 DISCOVERY COMPLETED TO DATE 7 8 9 Listed below is a statement specifying the discovery completed in this case: 1. Plaintiff’s Initial List of Witnesses and Production of Documents made pursuant 10 to FRCP 26(a)(1). 11 12 2. Defendants’ THELIOS USA INC., and LVMH MOET HENNESSY LOUIS 13 VUITTION INC Initial List of Witnesses and Production of Documents made pursuant 14 to FRCP 26(a)(1). 15 16 3.

DISCOVERYREMAINING TO BE COMPLETED The Parties plan to complete the following discovery: 1. Written discovery of all parties; 2. Subpoena new medical records for recent treatment of Plaintiff 3. Depositions of various witnesses including, but not limited to: a. The parties; b. The parties’ retained initial and rebuttal experts; and 28 BREMER WHYTE BROWN & O’MEARA LLP 1160 N. Town Center Drive Suite 250 Las Vegas, NV 89144 (702) 258-6665 2 1287.761 4864-1858-5012, v. 1 1 2 3 4 5 c. Other percipient witnesses as needed; 4. Initial Expert Disclosures; 5. Rebuttal Expert Disclosures; and 6. Other discovery as needed. 6 7 8 9 10 III. REASONS DISCOVERY HAS NOT BEEN COMPLETED Good cause exists to grant the Parties’ request for an extension to discovery 11 deadlines. This is the first request for an extension. Despite the parties’ diligence and 12 good faith attempts to pursue discovery in preparation for their respective case, 13 majority of discovery remains to be completed. 14 To that end, the parties recently learned of two new parties that must be brought 15 16 into the case. As a result, the parties agreed to stipulate to leave to file a Third-Party 17 Complaint and bring the new parties into the matter. A Stipulation and Order in that 18 19 regard was recently granted. Therefore, the parties respectfully request a 120-day 20 extension to allow the new third party to participate in discovery. As such, the 21 deadlines cannot be reasonably met despite the diligence of the Parties who seek the 22 23 extension. See Johnson v. Mammoth Recreations, Inc., 975 F.2d 604, 609 (9th Cir. 24 1992). 25 The parties are actively engaging in discovery in this matter. Furthermore, the 26 27 parties are acting in good faith in filing this Stipulation and without an intent to 28 improperly delay the proceedings. Continuing the deadlines for completing discovery 3 BREMER WHYTE BROWN & O’MEARA LLP 1160 N. Town Center Drive Suite 250 Las Vegas, NV 89144 (702) 258-6665 1287.761 4864-1858-5012, v. 1 1 will not prejudice any party or have a negative impact upon the judicial administration 2 of this Honorable Court. Accordingly, the Parties are requesting a 120-day extension 3 4 to all remaining discovery deadlines. 5 IV. 6 PROPOSED SCHEDULE FOR COMPLETING DISCOVERY 7 8 The Parties hereto, and for good cause described in this stipulation, and in 9 accord with Local Rule 6-1 and Local Rule 26-3, request this Honorable Court to adopt 10 and approve this stipulated extension to the discovery plan, and continue the discovery 11 deadlines as requested below: 12 DISCOVERY EVENT 13 Add Parties and Amended Pleadings 14 Initial Expert Disclosures 15 Rebuttal Expert Disclosures Close of Discovery Dispositive Motions Joint Pre-Trial Order 16 17 18 /// 19 /// CURRENT DEADLINES April 30, 2024 PROPOSED DEADLINES August 28, 2024 September 27, May 30, 2024 2024 June 28, 2024 October 28, 2024 November 29,28, 2024 July 29, 2024 November 2024 August 28, 2024 December 26, 2024 September 27, 2024 January 27, 2025 20 /// 21 /// 22 /// 23 /// 24 /// 25 /// 26 /// 27 /// 28 /// BREMER WHYTE BROWN & O’MEARA LLP 1160 N.
