ORDER] FOR EXTENSION OF TIME

FRCP 6)
STIPULATION
22
On June 24, 2014, the parties filed a Stipulation and Proposed Order to extend the time
23
for Plaintiff to file an amended complaint (Docket #49). The purpose of the extension was to
24
allow Plaintiff to complete discovery into the names of Doe defendants. Since that time,
25
Defendants’ counsel has been attempting, in response to Plaintiff’s FRCP 30(b)(6) deposition
26
notice, to identify the person(s) most knowledgeable about decisions that were made related
27
to the housing of Plaintiff on the date alleges he was injured. Defendants’ counsel is still in
28
the process of identifying the person(s) most knowledgeable. Plaintiff is unable to amend the

complaint until such identification has been made and the deposition(s) have been taken. The
2
parties anticipate that the person(s) most knowledgeable can be identified, and the
3
deposition(s) taken by October 17, 2014.
4
Therefore, pursuant to Civil Local Rules 144, and FRCP 6, Plaintiff John Moncrief, by
5
and through his attorney of record, Kenneth Frucht of the Geonetta & Frucht, LLP law firm,
6
and Defendants Grounds, Swarthout, and CDRC, by and through their attorney of record
7
Kelli M. Hammond, hereby stipulate that the time for Plaintiff to file a motion to amend and
8
to file an amended complaint be extended from August 25, 2014, as set forth in the Court’s
9
June 25, 2014 Order (Docket #50) to November 7, 2014. The purpose of the extension is to
10
allow Plaintiff to take sufficient discovery to be able to identify Doe defendants so that he can
11
file an amended complaint substituting in the named defendants for the individual defendants.
12
SO STIPULATED.
