Case No.: 18-cv-01530-WQH-JLB
ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO
FILE AN EXTENSION RE:
DISCOVERY
Plaintiff,
v.
GANNON GIGUIERE, et al.,
[ECF Nos. 100, 106]
Defendants.
19
20
Before the Court is Defendant Andrew Hackett’s Motion to File an Extension (ECF
21
No. 100), which Plaintiff Securities and Exchange Commission does not oppose (see ECF
22
No. 106). Defendant Hackett, proceeding pro se, requests that the Court “allow an
23
extension on the discovery due on Nov[ember] 7th[, 2022].” (ECF No. 100 at 1.)
24
The Court notes no schedule has been issued and no deadline for the completion of
25
discovery has been set yet. However, the Court construes the instant motion as a motion
26
to extend the deadline for submitting an Early Neutral Evaluation (“ENE”) statement as
27
required by the Court’s Notice and Order Setting Early Neutral Evaluation and Case
28
Management Conferences (ECF No. 97). See Estelle v. Gamble, 429 U.S. 97, 106 (1976)
