Plaintiff,

ORDER

OLD REPUBLIC TITLE & ESCROW, et
al.,
Defendants.

17
This matter is before the court on plaintiff’s Motion for Extension of Time to respond to
18
future counterclaims or motions. ECF No. 31. Plaintiff requests a blanket extension on all dates
19
and deadlines until August 8, 2017, when plaintiff returns from a previously scheduled family
20
vacation. Id. at 1. Plaintiff relies on Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 6(b) as support for his
21
motion. Id. at 2. This rule allows the court to grant relief from particular deadlines in a case, for
22
good cause shown. This rule does not, and the court will not, provide for general blanket
23
extensions of time to accommodate vacation schedules. Nonetheless, the court notes that multiple
24
motions to dismiss are on file, currently noted for separate hearing dates. ECF Nos. 18, 23, 29
25
and 30. In the interest of judicial economy, the court will extend the deadlines that are currently
26
pending by re-setting the scheduled hearings. Plaintiff’s motion is GRANTED and the motions to
27
dismiss at ECF No. 18, 23, 29, and 30 are RESET for hearing on August 23, 2017 at 10 a.m.
