On December 13, 2016, the parties filed a stipulation for an extension of time for Plaintiff to file

18

his opening brief in the action. (Doc. 12) Notably, the Scheduling Order permits a single extension by

19

the stipulation of parties. (Doc. 7 at 4) Because this is the first extension requested by either party, the

20

requested extension of fifteen days is appropriate. Accordingly, the Court ORDERS:

21

1.

Plaintiff’s request for an extension of time is GRANTED; and

22

2.

Plaintiff SHALL file an opening brief on or before December 27, 2016.
