Defendant.

United States District Court
Northern District of California

The Court previously granted Plaintiffs’ request to stay this action through September 10,

13

2021 due to their counsel’s health issues. See Order Granting Stay, ECF 27. On September 9,

14

2021, Plaintiffs filed a status report stating that their counsel continues to suffer from serious

15

health issues and requesting an extension of the stay. Plaintiffs also state that this case may be

16

impacted by three appeals pending before the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth

17

Circuit, and suggest that it would be appropriate to stay this case pending the decisions in those

18

cases. Defendant filed a response on September 10, 2021, advising that Defendant does not object

19

to an extension of the stay, but does object to an open-ended stay.

Based on Plaintiffs’ representation regarding their counsel’s health issues, the Court will
extend the stay an additional thirty days through October 14, 2021.
To the extent Plaintiffs seek a stay pending decision on one or more Ninth Circuit appeals,

23

Plaintiffs must file a noticed motion demonstrating that such a stay is warranted under applicable

24

legal standards. Pursuant to this Court’s Standing Order on Civil Cases, the briefing on motions to

25

stay is limited to 10 pages for the motion, 10 pages for the opposition, and 5 pages for the reply.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
