CAUSE NO.: 2:15-CV-467-TLS-JEM

OPINION AND ORDER
This matter is before the Court sua sponte. On October 12, 2016, Defendants filed a Motion
to Compel Interrogatory Answers or for Leave to Issue Interrogatories in Excess of 25 [DE 28]. On
October 14, 2016, Plaintiff filed an Objection to Defendants’ Request for an Expedited Briefing
Schedule Regarding Their Motion to Compel (DKT #28) [DE 31].
In their Motion to Compel, Defendants requested that the Court order an expedited briefing
schedule. Plaintiff objects to the expedited briefing schedule and represents that the attorneys
working on the case will be unable to complete the briefing on time under the proposed schedule.
To allow Plaintiff the time necessary to respond to Defendants’ Motion and in the interests
of justice, the Court ORDERS that the briefing on Defendants’ Motion to Compel [DE 28] shall
comply with the standard briefing deadlines under Local Rule 7-1.
SO ORDERED this 18th day of October, 2016.
