Case No.: 1:07-cv-00464 LJO JLT
ORDER ON SECOND STIPULATION FOR
EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE NOTICE
OF SETTLEMENT
(Doc. 322)

17

On March 28, 2011, the Court ordered the parties to file their stipulated notice of

18

settlement no later than April 20, 2011. (Doc. 319) However, due to the serious illness of one of

19

Plaintiffs’ counsel, on April 19, 2011, the parties sought a two-week extension, to May 3, 2011,

20

to file their stipulated notice of settlement. (Doc. 320) On April 20, 2011, the Court granted the

21

stipulation. (Doc. 321)

22

Once again, the parties seek an extension of time within which to finalize their settlement

23

and an extension of time within which to file their motion for approval of the settlement. (Doc.

24

322) In support of this request, the parties report that the serious illness of one of plaintiffs’

25

counsel has not resolved as quickly as they had anticipated and this has continued to delay

26

settlement efforts. Id. at 2. The parties assert that they will be prepared to file the Notice of

27

Settlement no later than May 12, 2011 and their motion for approval of the settlement by May

28

23, 2011. Id.
1

1

Good cause appearing, the Court GRANTS the extension. The stipulated notice of

2

settlement SHALL be filed no later than May 12, 2011 and the motion for approval of the

3

settlement SHALL be filed no later than May 23, 2011.

4
5

No further extensions of time will be granted absent a showing of extraordinary
good cause.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
