`Plaintiff,
`
`
`v.
`
`GARMIN INTERNATIONAL, INC. and
`GARMIN USA, INC.
`
`
`Defendants.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Case No. 6:17-CV-01217
`
`
`
`
`
`
`PLAINTIFF LOGANTREE’S RESPONSE TO DEFENDANT GARMIN’S MOTION TO
`VACATE DEADLINES
`
`
`
`Pursuant to the Court’s Order dated September 7, 2021, the undersigned counsel on behalf
`
`of Plaintiff LoganTree (“Plaintiff” or “LoganTree”) provide this response to Defendant Garmin’s
`
`(“Defendant” or “Garmin”) Notice to the Court and Motion to Vacate Deadlines. The undersigned
`
`counsel confirm that Theodore Brann, LoganTree’s principal officer, passed away the morning of
`
`August 31, 2021. The undersigned counsel confirm that, prior to Theodore’s passing, the parties
`
`were engaged in the meet and confer process and were discussing resolution of all issues currently
`
`pending before the Court. It is also believed that the parties were making good progress on
`
`resolution of these issues but were unable to complete that process due to the death of LoganTree’s
`
`principal officer.
`
` Garmin’s request that the Court vacate the current deadlines from its August 5 Order (Dkt.
`
`138), as well as the remaining deadlines in the case (Dkt. 110) or, alternatively extend the deadlines
`
`under Local Rule 6.1 to allow LoganTree time to appoint a new principal officer, is not opposed.
`
`Also, Garmin’s request that the Court grant the parties 30 days to provide a status report, so that
`
`LoganTree may regroup with its new principal officer and the parties can resume their meet and
`
`confer process, is not opposed.

`

`
`For the same reasons discussed above, it is respectfully requested that the Court grant a
`
`continuance of the September 14 in-person hearing set forth in the August 5 Order (Dkt. 138).
