[Proposed] Stipulation to Extend Discovery
10988043.1
1
On July 24, 2013, this Court ordered discovery be reopened and extended to November
2
14, 2013 pursuant to a stipulation by the below parties for several limited purposes. On October
3
22, 2013, this Court extended discovery to February 28, 2014 pursuant to a stipulation to allow
4
the parties to resolve some outstanding discovery issues including the additional production of
5
documents by several parties and the taking of depositions of designated trial witnesses. The
6
parties now request a one-month additional extension to discovery due to some scheduling and
7
logistics issues with the taking of some depositions of designated trial witnesses.

9
Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 29 and Local Rule 6-2, Petitioners Presidio Growth, LLC and
Presidio Resources, LLC (“Petitioners”), Intervenors J. Paul Reddam and Clarence Ventures,
10
LLC, Intervenors Tom Gonzales and Birch Ventures, LLC (“Intervenors”), and Respondent, the
11
United States, hereby request that the Court permit discovery in this case to be extended for the
12
following enumerated limited purposes until March 31, 2014:
13
The parties may resolve any currently outstanding issues related to the United States’
14
August 22 and September 12 supplementations of its prior discovery responses.
15
The parties may complete the process of production and review of the Stein/Larson
16
documents, as agreed to in the parties’ prior stipulation of July 24, 2013 and October
17
22, 2013.
18
The parties may take depositions of designated trial witnesses that have not yet been
19
deposed in this case. 1 In so stipulating to this extension, counsel for the United States
20
does not agree, at this time, to use of any such depositions in connection with pending
21
dispositive motions.
22

1
It is the United States’ position that depositions should be limited to witnesses listed on
adverse parties’ trial witness lists, exchanged on September 30, 2013. However, the
Intervenors disagree, and the parties are continuing to work to resolve this dispute without
the Court’s intervention.
