CASE NO. 1:13-CV-01345 AWI-JLT
ORDER GRANTING IN PART
STIPULATION TO AMEND SCHEDULING
ORDER
(Doc. 37)
Defendants.
16
Before The Court is the stipulation to amend the scheduling order to allow additional time
17
18
to conduct nonexpert discovery. (Doc. 37) The parties report that there are several outstanding
19
discovery requests including a Freedom of Information Act request to the Bureau of Prisons, a
20
subpoena duces tecum to The GEO group, a recent document production of 1,000 documents
21
which Plaintiff has not yet been able to complete review and a delayed deposition of Dr. Rucker,
22
the Chief of Medicine at TCI. (Id. at 2) Based upon these discovery issues, the parties propose
23
changes to the case schedule but fail to allow sufficient time between the hearing on dispositive
24
motions and the pretrial conference. Id. at 3. Likewise, the parties fail to explain why they need to
25
extend the deadline for non-expert discovery in order to evaluate whether motions to compel are
26
needed. Seemingly, the only change needed is an extension of time to file discovery motions.
