On March 22, 2013, this Court issued an order to show cause requiring an opposition to

17

Defendants’ outstanding motion for judgment on the pleadings. On March 28, 2013, the Court

18

received a notice from Plaintiffs’ counsel indicting that he was unable to respond due to his ill

19

health and requested additional time to respond.

20

The Court had previously set a case management conference for May 6, 2013 and has

21

now received notice that Plaintiffs’ counsel remains too ill to be able to contribute to

22

preparation of the joint case management statement.

23

The Court HEREBY VACATES its previous order to show cause and GRANTS

24

Plaintiffs additional time to prepare an opposition to the outstanding motion for judgment on the

25

pleadings until June 28, 2013. Failure to file an opposition or a request for substitute counsel

26

by that time shall result in entry of judgment in Defendants’ favor. A reply, if any, shall be

27

filed no later than July 12, 2013.
