Defendants.

On March 19, 2018, the Court issued a minute order stating that: “The parties, as well

19

as third parties K. Holland and S. Kernan, should be prepared to discuss the motions to quash

20

(ECF Nos. 121 & 122 ) at the discovery and status conference on April 4, 2018.” (ECF No.

21

125).

22

On March 22, 2018, counsel for Defendants and third parties K. Holland and S. Kernan

23

(“Counsel”) filed a request for clarification. (ECF No. 126). Counsel states that Defendants

24

and K. Holland and S. Kernan will be prepared to discuss the motions to quash, but requests

25

clarification regarding whether Plaintiff needs to file opposition(s) to the motions. Counsel

26

argues that the ability to discuss the motions will be limited without the benefit of Plaintiff’s

27

opposition.

28

In issuing the minute order on March 19, 2018, the Court did not alter the deadlines laid
1

1

out in Local Rule 230(l). Under Local Rule 230(l), Plaintiff’s opposition is due before the

discovery and status conference.
