`
` Dear Sir or Madam:
`
`Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 6(b), 37 C.F.R. § 2.120(a), Petitioner United
`
`States Polo Association, Inc.., with the consent of Respondent American Polo Association, LLC,
`
`hereby requests to extend deadlines in this case for 30 days to allow time for Petitioner to complete
`
`its trial period. Despite the best efforts of the Parties, they were unable to schedule a mutually
`
`convenient time to conduct the trial deposition of Applicant’s principal, Mr. Michael Farrah.
`
`Petitioner requested deposition dates for Mr. Farrah on June 23, 2021 however counsel for
`
`Applicant was out of the office and did not return until July 7, 2021. Due to scheduling conflicts
`
`with Mr. Farrah and his counsel, they were able to offer only two dates during the entire 30-day
`
`trial period for Mr. Farrah’s deposition; counsel for Petitioner had previously-scheduled
`
`depositions on both of those dates. The Parties were ultimately able to identify three mutually
`
`convenient dates for counsel and Mr. Farrah in August, however those dates all fell outside of
`
`Plaintiff’s 30 day trial period.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Accordingly, the parties respectfully request to extend all deadlines by 30 days,
`
`from the current deadlines, as follows:
