ORDER EXTENDING
DEADLINE FOR PLAINTIFF’S
CLASS CERTIFICATION
MOTION
/

14
15

Plaintiff has filed an administrative motion seeking to extend the deadline to file her

16

class certification motion by six weeks from DECEMBER 31, 2015 to FEBRUARY 12, 2016.

17

Plaintiff cites McCormick & Schmick’s delays in responding to certain discovery requests and

18

difficulty in scheduling a deposition as the reason for seeking, although plaintiff has not sought

19

any discovery relief. McCormick & Schmick filed a statement of non-opposition to plaintiff’s

20

motion. It has offered assurances that it will complete the discovery at issue by January 8 and

21

schedule the deposition in question the following week.

22

Plaintiff’s proposed schedule does not allow enough time for class notice, if necessary,

23

before the deadline to file dispositive motions, which is April 28. Nevertheless, this order

24

extends the deadline for plaintiff’s class certification motion to JANUARY 28, 2016. The parties

25

should seek any relief relating to the settlement conference from Judge Spero. All other

26

deadlines remain in place.

27

IT IS SO ORDERED.

28
Dated: November 25, 2015.
