This matter is before the undersigned pursuant to Local Rule 302(c)(21). The parties have

18

submitted a stipulation and proposed order extending the expert disclosure deadline in accordance

19

with Fed. R. Civ. Proc. 26(a)(2). ECF No. 81. This is the first extension requested by either

20

party. The parties’ stipulation asks the court to extend the following dates:

21

(1) The last day for disclosure of expert witnesses to July 31, 2017;

22

(2) The last day for disclosure of rebuttal expert witness to August 31, 2017;

23

(3) The last day for discovery motions heard to October 4, 2017;

24

(4) Discovery completed to October 18, 2017;

25

(5) The Joint Mid-Litigation Statement to October 4, 2017.

See ECF No. 81 at 3.
The court finds that good cause does not exist to extend the expert disclosure deadline 90
days. However, in light of the parties’ stipulation, the court will grant an extension of 60 days.
