v.
ANNA GATTI, et al.,

Case No. 15-cv-00798-HSG
ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR
RELIEF FROM NONDISPOSITIVE
PRETRIAL ORDER AT DKT. NO. 526
Re: Dkt. No. 529

Defendants.
Having reviewed Plaintiff’s motion for relief from Magistrate Ryu’s Minute Order setting

13

a deposition schedule, Dkt. No. 526, the Court DENIES Plaintiff’s motion. The Minute Order

14

plainly is not clearly erroneous or contrary to law. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(A) (“A judge of the

15

court may reconsider any pretrial matter under this subparagraph (A) where it has been shown that

16

the magistrate judge’s order is clearly erroneous or contrary to law.”). See also Fed. R. Civ. P.

17

72(a); Civ. L.R. 72–2; United States v. Abonce-Barrera, 257 F.3d 959, 969 (9th Cir. 2001)

18

(holding that with respect to discovery disputes and other nondispositive orders, a magistrate

19

judge’s decision is “entitled to great deference”); Grimes v. City & Cty. of San Francisco, 951

20

F.2d 236, 241 (9th Cir. 1991) (“The reviewing court may not simply substitute its judgment for

21

that of the deciding court.”).

IT IS SO ORDERED.
