UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ANGEL DE JESUS ZEPEDA RIVAS, et
al.,
Plaintiffs,
v.

Case No. 20-cv-02731-VC
ORDER RE REMAINING SCHEDULE
FOR EVIDENTIARY HEARING

DAVID JENNINGS, et al.,
Defendants.
The parties were right to suggest time limits for the evidentiary hearing. For the
remainder of the hearing, the plaintiffs will have 3.5 hours to examine and cross-examine
witnesses. The defendants will have 4 hours to examine and cross-examine witnesses, and must
coordinate on the use of that time. If the parties use their time efficiently and believe that
additional time is needed, the Court will consider granting additional time. If a witness filibusters
during cross-examination, the side conducting the cross-examination will get more time.
Today, the hearing will run from 1:10 pm to 3:00 p.m., will break for one hour, and then
run from 4:00 p.m. to roughly 5:00 p.m.
Tomorrow, the hearing will begin at 1:00 p.m. and run to roughly 5:00 p.m., with a
couple short breaks.
Friday, the hearing will begin at 11:00 a.m. and will end at roughly 2:30 p.m, with a short
lunch break.
If time runs out before 2:30 p.m. on Friday, the parties can use that for oral argument.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: November 18, 2020
