ORDER SETTING BRIEFING
SCHEDULE FOR PLAINTIFFS'
MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
Re: Dkt. No. 30

United States District Court
Northern District of California

Now pending before the Court is the parties’ dispute regarding the schedule for summary

13
14

judgment briefing. Plaintiffs intend to move for summary judgment and they assert that

15

Defendants, if they are also going to move for summary judgment, must file a cross-motion

16

simultaneous with Plaintiffs’ motion. Defendants, however, represent that they are unsure if they

17

need to file such a motion; not until they see Plaintiffs’ motion will they know whether a cross-

18

motion is worthwhile. Given that Plaintiffs’ proposal may pressure Defendants to file an

19

unnecessary motion, the Court adopts Defendants’ counterproposal. The Court accordingly sets

20

the following briefing schedule:

21

Plaintiffs’ motion for summary judgment due by:

Nov. 3, 2014

22

Defendants’ opposition, cross-motion, or both due by:

Nov. 17, 2014

23

Plaintiffs’ reply in support of motion, and opposition

24

to cross-motion due by:

Dec. 1, 2014

25

Defendants’ reply in support of cross-motion due by:

Dec. 8, 2014

26

Hearing on motions:

Dec. 18, 2014 at 9:00 a.m.
