GOOD CAUSE
6
7
Good Cause exists for the requested continuance. The parties continue to discuss the
8
possibility of a stipulation regarding the nature of the documents Plaintiff seeks, which would
9
otherwise obviate the need for Plaintiff’s motion to compel. While those negotiations continue, the
10
11
parties agreed to postpone the hearing date to avoid further briefing.
The change will not alter any other date or event already fixed by Court Order.
