Description

This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form. Dear [Judge's Name], I am writing to submit an Amended Scheduling Order in the matter of [Case Name], which is currently pending before this honorable court. The purpose of this letter is to provide you with a comprehensive and detailed description of the changes we seek to make to the previously issued Scheduling Order, as well as to outline the reasons for these amendments. [Insert relevant details about the case, such as the parties involved, the nature of the dispute, and any previous court orders or events that have taken place.] The Amended Scheduling Order includes the following revisions: 1. Extension of Discovery Period: Due to the complexity of the issues involved in this case and the potential need for further investigation, we are requesting an extension of the discovery period by [number of days/weeks]. We believe that additional time is necessary to adequately gather and review all evidence, conduct necessary interviews, and engage in any required expert consultations. 2. Extension of Expert Disclosures: In light of the extended discovery period, we also propose an extension of the deadline for expert disclosures by [number of days/weeks]. This will allow both parties to fully evaluate the evidence obtained during the extended discovery phase and provide complete and accurate expert opinions and reports. 3. Extension of Dispositive Motion Deadline: Given the expanded timeline for discovery and expert disclosure, we respectfully request an extension of the deadline for filing dispositive motions by [number of days/weeks]. This will allow sufficient time for the parties to review all evidence, engage in settlement discussions, and determine if further motions are necessary. 4. Revised Pretrial Conference Date: To accommodate the additional time required for discovery and motion practice, we propose a new pretrial conference date of [specific date], which is [number of days/weeks] later than the previously set date. This will allow the court to assess the progress of the case, discuss any pending motions, and set a firm trial date. We believe that the amended scheduling order is necessary and justified in order to ensure a fair and efficient resolution of this case. The requested extensions will enable the parties to fully explore all relevant issues and evidence, engage in meaningful settlement negotiations, and present a well-prepared case to the court. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and we respectfully request that you consider our proposed amendments to the Scheduling Order. We will be glad to discuss any further details or address any concerns you may have at the upcoming hearing.
