Per Local Rule 6-2, Crossclaim Defendant Oregon Water Resources Department
(OWRD); Plaintiffs Yurok Tribe, Pacific Coast Federation of Fishermen’s Associations, and
Institute for Fisheries Resources (collectively, “Plaintiffs”); Defendant and Crossclaimant United
States of America (United States); Crossclaim Defendant Klamath Water Users’ Association
(KWUA); Intervenor Klamath Tribes; and Intervenor Klamath Irrigation District (KID) (all,

STIP. & [PROPOSED] ORDER TO ENLARGE TIME ON KID MOTIONS (3:19-cv-04405-WHO)

1

collectively, “the Parties”) submit this stipulation and proposed order to enlarge time on the

2

briefing schedule for responses to and replies in support of KID’s Motion to Strike (Doc. 1039),

3

Motion for Stay (Doc. 1040), Rule 56(d) Request to Extend Hearing on the Pending Summary

4

Judgment Motions and Permit Discovery (Doc. 1041-3), and Request for Judicial Notice

5

(collectively “KID’s Motions”). The parties request that briefing on KID’s Motions be placed

6

on the same schedule as briefing on the summary judgment motions and cross-motions filed in

7

connection with the First Cause of Action of the United States’ crossclaim and KWUA’s and

8

OWRD’s counterclaims, with responses to KID’s Motions due September 12, 2022 and KID’s

9

replies due October 27, 2022.

10

The reason for the requested extension is to coordinate briefing between the pending

11

summary judgment motions and KID’s Motions and to provide counsel additional time to

12

respond to KID’s Motions, while also preparing summary judgment responses and replies and

13

responses to KID’s motion to transfer this case, along with six other cases, filed July 29, 2022

14

with the United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation. The requested extension will

15

not result in delay because KID’s Motions have been noticed for hearing on the same date as the

16

pending summary judgment motions – November 30, 2022.

17

The Parties previously stipulated to a two-week extension of the deadline for oppositions

18

to the United States’ and Plaintiffs’ motions for summary judgment and cross-motions for

19

summary judgment, ECF Nos. 1034, 1035, and subsequently to an additional four-day extension

20

for those opposition briefs and cross-motions. ECF Nos. 1036, 1037. The Parties also

21

previously stipulated to an extension of OWRD’s responsive-pleading deadline. ECF No. 990.

22

The Parties have not requested or received any other extensions of time since OWRD appeared

23

in this action.

24

Accordingly, the Parties stipulate as follows:

25

1.

26

2022 to September 12, 2022.

27
28

The deadline for all oppositions to KID’s Motions is extended from August 12,

2.

The deadline for KID’s replies in support of KID’s Motions will be October 27,

2022.
