ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION FOR
A ONE-DAY EXTENSION AS MOOT;

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE: SANCTIONS
FOR FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH
DEADLINES
Dkt. No. 450
12
On July 21, 2015, Plaintiffs filed a Motion For A One-Day Extension To File Reply And
13
Opposition On Motions For Summary Judgment On Issues Of Excessive Force And False Arrest,
14
seeking an extension of time from July 21, 2015, to July 22, 2015. (Dkt. No. 450.) However,
15
Plaintiffs failed to file a Reply and Opposition, or any other document, on July 22, 2015. The
16
Motion for a One-Day Extension is therefore DENIED AS MOOT. With respect to the deadline at
17
issue, the Court notes that it previously granted Plaintiffs’ stipulated requests for extensions of this
18
deadline, first extending the date from June 30 to July 14, 2015, then further extending the
19
deadline to July 21, 2015. Plaintiffs’ latest request, offering only that they “underestimated the
20
difficulty” of completing their filing, did not offer good cause for an extension. Plaintiffs have
21
been warned orally, and in writing, about their cavalier disregard of filing deadlines. They are
22
hereby on notice that all subsequent failures to comply will carry appropriate monetary or
23
evidentiary sanctions.
24
In light of the above, Plaintiffs are hereby ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE why the Court
25
should not impose monetary or evidentiary sanctions against them for their repeated, flagrant
26
disregard of filing deadlines in connection with the summary judgment motions and throughout
27
28
1
the course of this litigation. The Court SETS a hearing on the Order to Show Cause on
2
Wednesday, July 29, 2015, at 10:00 a.m. Defendants’ appearance is not required.
3
Should Plaintiffs file their Reply and Opposition on Motions For Summary Judgment On
4
Issues Of Excessive Force And False Arrest no later than 9:00 a.m. on Monday, July 27, 2015,
5
the Court will vacate the Order to Show Cause and hearing. To the extent such Reply and
6
Opposition has not been filed by that time, Plaintiffs’ shall file a written response to the Order to
7
Show Cause no later than 9:00 a.m. on Monday, July 27, 2015.
8
9
10
Defendants’ reply on their cross-motions for summary judgment shall be due no later than
28 days after the filing of Plaintiffs’ opposition to the cross-motions, consistent with the parties’
prior stipulation.
