On April 26, 2016, the parties filed a joint statement of discovery disagreement. (Dkt. No.

21

81.) That same day defendants filed a motion to file documents under seal in connection with the

22

discovery disagreement. (Dkt. No. 82.) Local Rule 302(c)(1) provides that all discovery motions

23

are among the duties to be performed by the assigned Magistrate Judge in civil matters.
However, on March 31, 2016, the assigned District Judge issued an order in which he

24
25

stated that the discovery deadline in this action “expired in December 2014.” (Dkt. No. 80 at 2.)

26

In this regard, the time permitted for the undersigned to hear the parties’ discovery dispute has

27

passed.
