ORDER GRANTING JOINT STIPULATION

Defendants.

On May 14, 2020, the parties filed a joint stipulation to extend Plaintiff John Perez’

22

deadline to file his class certification reply and to continue the class certification hearing. (Doc.

23

No. 56.) In summary, the parties explain that deadlines in this action were previously continued

24

to alleviate concerns regarding the location and means of conducting depositions noticed by

25

Plaintiff because of the deponents’ concerns in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. Plaintiff would

26

like to take the three remining depositions in person, while Defendants are amendable to

27

scheduling remote depositions. The parties now have agreed, provided that public health

1

considerations make in-person depositions feasible in June, the three remaining depositions will

2

take place in Fresno on June 16, 17, 18, 2020. The parties therefore request to extend Plaintiff’s

3

deadline to file his class certification reply and to continue the class certification hearing date.

4

Having considered the parties’ stipulation, and good cause appearing, the parties’ request

5

to extend Plaintiff’s deadline to file his class certification reply and to continue the class

6

certification hearing date is GRANTED. Plaintiff shall file his Class Certification Reply on or

7

before July 17, 2020. The Class Certification Hearing is continued to August 20, 2020, at 1:30

8

p.m. in Courtroom 2 (AWI) before District Judge Anthony W. Ishii.
