UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA KATHY BUENO, et al., Case No. 16-cv-06999-VC Plaintiffs, ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE v. Re: Dkt. Nos. 24, 25 COUNTY OF ALAMEDA, et al., Defendants. Both parties are ordered to show cause why they should not be sanctioned for failing to move this case along, and for failing to be candid to the Court with respect to their stipulated requests for extensions. The parties originally sought extensions of their discovery deadlines suggesting that the extensions would help them "continue" settlement discussions, but now they've asked the magistrate judge to postpone the settlement conference on the ground that it's premature. (Dkt. Nos. 21, 23.) Their renewed request for an extension seeks two-month extensions on discovery deadlines, suggesting that real reason for the request is that the parties have not been diligent. Within 7 days of the filing of this Order, the parties must file briefs explaining why they shouldn't be sanctioned for this conduct. A hearing on this Order to Show Cause will take place on Thursday, July 27, 2017 at 10:00 AM. IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated: July 14, 2017 ______________________________________ VINCE CHHABRIA United States District Judge
