Administrative Motion for Extension of Time to File a response to the Second Amended

12

Complaint. (Dkt. Nos. 115, 116.)

have offered no legal authority or argument suggesting that permitting them to file a motion under

Rule 56 at this juncture in this case—prior to any responsive pleading, a Rule 16 scheduling

16

conference, and an opportunity for discovery—would be appropriate.

Defendants’ Motion for Extension of Time to File a response the Second Amended

Complaint is GRANTED IN PART. Defendants shall file any motion to dismiss or answer no later

19

than July 5, 2016.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
