On February 24, 2025, Defendants A U. Baniga, T. Gabbard, S. Onyango, N. Holmes, and

19

K. Hill (collectively “Defendants”) filed an ex parte motion1 for an extension of timet. (Doc. No.

23, “Motion”). Defendants seek a thirty (30) day extension to the current deadline of March 3,

21

2025 set forth in the Court’s Case Management and Scheduling Order to file an exhaustion-based

22

motion for summary judgment, or up to and including April 2, 2025. (Id. at 1).
Fed. R. Civ. P. 6(b) provides for extending deadlines for good cause shown, if the request

23
24

to extend time is made before the original time, or its extension expires; or, on a motion made

25

after the time has expired, if the party failed to act because of excusable neglect. Additionally,

26

Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(b)(4) permits a court to modify a scheduling order for good cause shown and

27

with the judge’s consent. The Court finds good cause to grant the Motion.

The Court construes the motion as an administrative motion brought under Local Rule 233(a).
