ORDER
v.
GREGORY FORD GILBERT, et al.,
16
Defendants.
17
On February 1, 2016, this Court issued a Pretrial Scheduling Order setting the dates for all
18
19
discovery, dispositive motions, and trial. (ECF No. 223.) The Court ordered all dispositive
20
motions to be heard on or before September 21, 2017. (ECF No. 223 at 4.) On two separate
21
occasions the parties asked for and were granted an extension of the discovery deadline. (ECF
22
Nos. 229 & 243.) However, the parties never sought an extension of the dispositive motion
23
deadline. On November 29, 2017, well past the deadline, two separate sets of Defendants moved
24
for summary judgment through their attorney of record Gregory Gilbert. (ECF Nos. 272 & 273.)
25
Defendants’ Motions for Summary Judgment (ECF Nos. 272 & 273) are, therefore, untimely.
26
Accordingly, Defendants’ Motions for Summary Judgment are hereby STRICKEN and will not
27
be considered.
