13

The parties commenced discovery following a January 29, 2016 Case Management

14

Conference. (See Dkt. No. 51.) At Defendant’s request, the Court scheduled a discovery hearing

15

for April 12, 2016. (See Dkt. No. 52.) Although Plaintiff was given notice of the hearing, she did

16

not appear and did not otherwise communicate with the Court. At the hearing, Defendant

17

represented that Plaintiff had failed to respond or object to any of Defendant’s discovery requests,

18

including interrogatories served on February 17, 2016, and Requests for Production served on

19

February 19, 2016. In light of Defendant’s representations and Plaintiff’s failure to appear, the

20

Court VACATES the May 31, 2016 deadline for the close of fact discovery and ORDERS

21

Defendant to file a motion to compel discovery in the form of a letter brief by April 29, 2016.

22

Plaintiff shall file an opposition to the motion, also in letter form, by May 13, 2016. Defendant’s

23

reply, if any, is due by May 20, 2016. A hearing on the motion to compel is scheduled for May

24

26, 2016 at 9:00 a.m. in Courtroom F, 15th Floor, Federal Building, 450 Golden Gate Avenue in

25

San Francisco.

respond to the discovery requests could lead to dismissal of her lawsuit.
