v.

No. 2:13-cv-2380 MCE CKD PS

CALIFORNIA HIGHWAY PATROL, et
al.,

16

Defendants.

17
Counsel for defendant Ayers requested an informal discovery conference before the

18
19

undersigned. The specific relief sought pertains to further fact discovery. Defendant contends

20

that further fact discovery is necessary in order to properly educate their retained experts. Under

21

the modified scheduling order, all discovery, with the exception of expert discovery, was to have

22

been completed by April 7, 2017. ECF No. 70. Defendant’s request is therefore untimely. Any

23

request to further modify the scheduling order must be made to the District Judge assigned to this

24

action.
