               Re:     Kolbert v. Benworth Capital Partners, LLC et al.,
                       Case No. 1:2025-cv-00117-FB-VMS

Dear Judge Scanlon:

        This office represents Plaintiff William Kolbert in this matter. Plaintiff, on consent of all
the parties, is respectfully requesting an adjournment of the in-person initial conference currently
scheduled for June 5, 2025 at 11:30 a.m., as well as the proposed discovery plan, which is currently
due on May 27, 2025.

         On April 25, 2025, a pre-motion conference was held before Judge Frederick Block, during
which the Plaintiff was granted three (3) weeks to serve and file a final amended complaint.
Contemporaneously and within the same order, the case was “stayed until the plaintiff serves and
files his final amended complaint.” Plaintiff served its amended complaint of May 16, 2025 (See
ECF Doc No. 32). The matter will now proceed to motion practice, as defendants indicated that
they will file their pre-motion conference letters in accordance with the aforementioned order.

        Accordingly, it is respectfully requested that all currently scheduled dates be extended until
all motions are fully briefed.

       I thank the Court for its courtesy in considering this request.


                                                Respectfully submitted,

                                                /s/ Serge F. Petroff
                                                Serge F. Petroff, Esq.
