DELBERT L. ARCHULETA,
Plaintiff,
v.
BLAC-FRAC TANKS, INC.,
Defendant.
______________________________________________________________________________
MINUTE ORDER
______________________________________________________________________________
Entered by Michael E. Hegarty, United States Magistrate Judge, on February 25, 2015.
Before the Court are Plaintiff’s Motion to Amend the Scheduling Order [filed February 20,
2015; docket #29] and Defendant’s Motion to Amend the Scheduling Order [filed February 24,
2015; docket #32]. The Court finds no reasonable basis on which to deny Plaintiff’s motion
outright, particularly because the Defendant does not oppose Plaintiff’s primary request to extend
the expert disclosure deadline. The Court finds good cause to extend both the Plaintiff’s request and
the Defendant’s request (in part) to extend the initial expert and rebuttal expert disclosure deadlines.
However, the Court disagrees both with the Plaintiff that the discovery deadline need not be
extended and with the Defendant that the discovery deadline be extended longer than 30 days.
Accordingly, the Court grants in part and denies in part the motions, and finds good cause
to modify paragraph 9 of the Scheduling Order as follows:
Initial expert disclosures due:
Rebuttal expert disclosures due:
Discovery cutoff:
Dispositive motions due:

March 23, 2015
May 11, 2015
June 30, 2015
