Re: KCM Realty Company. LLP v. New Ram Realty LLC, Index No. 712807/2016;
Request For Extension Of Time To File Summary Judgment Motion

Dear Justice Livote;

We represent the Plaintiff KCM L.P. in the above-

Realty Company, ("Plaintiff")
referenced action against Defendant New Ram Realty LLC ("Defendant"). The purpose of this

letter is to request an extension of the time to file a summary judgment motion from October 4.
2018 to October 16, 2018. Defendant's counsel has consented to the extension, but has objected
to the proposed briefing schedule.

By an Order entered on June 27, 2018, this Court extended the time to file summary
judgment motions to October 4. 2018. (A copy of this June 27, 2018 Order is annexed hereto as
Exhibit 1). By e-mails dated September 7 and 11, 2018 to Clifford Greene,-Defendant's counsel,
I requested Defendant's consent to the extension of the time to file summary judgment motions
from October 4 to October 16, 2018. By an e-mail dated September 11, 2018, Mr. Greene stated
time."
that "I don't have a problem extending (A copy of Mr. Greene's September 11, 2018 e-mail
and my September 7 and 11, 2018 e-mails is annexed hereto as Exhibit 2.)

On September 14, .2018, I proposed the following briefing schedule on the summary
judgment motion to Mr. Greene:

October 16 , 2018 - of judgment motion

Filing summary
November 13, 2018- Opposing papers to summary judgment motion (1 month).
December 3,_2013- papers on judgment motion (3 weeks).

Although Mr. Greene, Defendant's counsel, has agreed to the extension of the time to file

summary judgment motions to October 16, 2018, he does not agree to the proposed briefing
schedule, which Plaintiff believes is very reasonable and affords more than sufficient time to
submit opposing and reply papers on the motion.

Plaintiff respectfully requests a conference call among Kevin Morrissey, your law clerk,
and counsel for the parties as soon as possible to discuss the requested extension and the briefmg
ordered"
schedule in an effort to reach a Stipulation that would be "so by Your Honor.

Respectfully submitted,

Mitchell J. Geller

September 7, 2018

Cliff,
As you may recall, the time for plaintiff to e-file a summary judgment motion was extended to October

4, 2018. I would like to extend that date by a few weeks to October 16, 2018. I thought it would be a

good idea to submit a Stipulation to the Court which extends Plaintiff's date to e-file the summary
judgment motion and includes a briefing schedule satisfactory to you and nie under which defendant

would have additional time to serve opposing papers and plaintiff would have additional time to serve

reply papers. I propose the following dates:

October 16 - Plaintiff judgment motion

, 2018 e-files summary
November 2018- Defendant e-files papers
6, opposing
N_ovember 26. 2018- Plaintiff e-files reply papers
November 27. 2018- Return Date of motion

Please get back to me as soon as possible on my proposal. If you agree, I would like to submit the
ordered"
Stipulation to be "so by next Tuesday or Wednesday.

Mitchell
