`

`
`
`JOINT MOTION TO REVISE
` THE AMENDED DEADLINES ENTERED AT DOCKET NO. 177
`
`The parties in the above-captioned matter file this joint motion seeking to revise the
`
`Amended Deadlines entered at Docket No. 177. The Electronic Clerk’s Notes accompanying the
`
`order correctly record what the parties understand to be the Court’s intended scheduling
`
`modification as ordered during the April 21, 2021 Status Conference: “deadlines pushed back 30
`
`days.” The parties jointly seek to revise the specific Amended Deadlines provided in Docket No.
`
`177 to reflect that intent.
`
`
`
`This joint motion is supported by good cause. On April 21, 2021, the Court held a status
`
`conference in the above-captioned matter. Consistent with the Clerk’s Notes, the parties’ shared
`
`understanding of the Court’s intent as expressed during the conference was to extend the
`
`remaining case scheduling deadlines by thirty days. The Amended Deadline dates provided in
`
`Docket No. 177, however, do not reflect that intent, as compared with the deadlines provided in
`
`Docket No. 159. To bring the Amended Deadlines into accord with the Court’s order during the
`
`status conference, the parties respectfully submit that the Amended Deadlines be revised as
