cut off. Defendant does not oppose the request as long as the court also extends the deadline for

20

the meet and confer process and about the procedures defendant’s counsel set out for providing

21

plaintiff with access to incident reports responsive to plaintiff’s discovery requests. (ECF No.

22

64.) In his opposition to plaintiff’s pending motion to compel, defendant does not appear to

23

address the subjects set out in the Declaration. Defendant will be ordered to do so.

Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED as follows:

25

1. Plaintiff’s motion for an extension of time (ECF Nos. 58, 63) is granted. The

27

the Discovery and Scheduling Order, any requests for discovery must be served at least sixty days
