On June 3, 2013, both Plaintiff and Defendant filed ex parte discovery motions. The Local

statute, rule, local rule or standing order permits the ex parte motion. Civil L.R. 7-10. The parties

19

cite no authority permitting the ex parte motions.

However, the Court has reviewed the parties’ filings and construes the ex parte motions as

21

requests to shorten time to hear the discovery motions pursuant to Civil Local Rule 6-3. Good cause

22

appearing, the Court grants the requests to shorten time.

No later than June 5, 2013 at 5:00 p.m., Defendant shall file an opposition to Plaintiff’s

24

motion for order for mental examination (Docket no. 94). Plaintiff may file a reply no later than

25

June 6, 2013 at noon (Plaintiff shall inform the Court no later than June 6, 2013 at 9:00 a.m. if it
