The parties seek a 61-day continuance of all deadlines set forth in the order regarding

attorney’s fees. The parties state they “have been participating in the Ninth Circuit Court of

20

Appeals voluntary mediation program,” and “believe additional settlement discussions could

21

assist them in reaching a resolution of the disputes” (Dkt. No. 50 at 2). No continuance will be

22

granted at this time. Pursuant to the attorney’s fees order, the parties will have an opportunity to

23

meet and confer and attempt to resolve all differences as to the amount of attorney’s fees. The

24

request for a continuance is DENIED.
