No. 2:14-cv-01749-JAM-AC

v.

ORDER

CITY OF VALLEJO, et al.,

15

Defendants.

16
This matter is before the undersigned pursuant to Local Rule 302(c)(21). The parties have

17
18

filed separate motions requesting that the court amend its March 5, 2015, scheduling order to

19

allow more time for discovery in accordance with Federal Rule 16(b)(4). ECF Nos. 42, 43. This

20

is the first discovery deadline extension requested by either party. Defendants’ motion asks the

21

court to extend the parties’ discovery deadline to September 30, 2015, while plaintiff’s motion

22

asks the court to extend the deadline 120 days, to December 29, 2015. The court finds that good

23

cause does not exist to extend the discovery deadline 120 days. However, in light of the parties’

24

pending motions, the court will grant an extension of the parties’ discovery deadline to October

25

30, 2015.
