No. 5. On December 26, 20218, the Court granted the EEOC’s motion to stay the case due to a
lapse in appropriations, and stated the stay would be lifted when the EEOC’s funding was

15
restored. See Doc. No. 124. The parties now inform the Court that appropriations for the EEOC
16
were restored on January 26, 2019. However, the parties have jointly requested an extension of
17
the stay, as they have agreed to attend mediation. Doc. No. 126. The parties have agreed to notify
18
the Court by March 1, 2019 as to whether the mediation was successful and as to the status of the
19
case. For good cause shown, the Court will extend the stay until March 1, 2019.
