library closures preventing him from researching and making copies for the document production.

Plaintiff does not anticipate any further requests for extension. The Court finds good cause for the

requested extension.

Previously, Defendants had sought and been granted an extension of the discovery cut-off date

25

to allow them to receive and review Plaintiff’s discovery responses and determine whether a motion to

compel will be necessary. The discovery cut-off date will also be extended for this purpose, so that

27

Defendants are not prejudiced by the extension being granted to Plaintiff.
