that they were engaged in settlement negotiations. Based
upon such representations we granted a request for an
extension of the discovery deadline and granted a request
for an extension for the filing of dispositive motions
related to the counterclaims. Although the parties have
fully briefed plaintiff's motion for summary judgment, in
light of the ongoing settlement negotiations, new discovery
underway, and filing extensions into February 2005 in
regards to the counter-claim, we deem it prudent to deny
plaintiff's motion for summary judgment without prejudice.

parties wish to file a dispositive motion in regards to
plaintiff's claims they must do so by the dates set for the
