JOHNATHAN RODEN,

Case No. 2:16-CV-11208
District Judge Victoria Roberts
Magistrate Judge Anthony P. Patti

MICHELLE FLOYD, et al.,
Defendants.
___________________________________/
ORDER GRANTING AS UNOPPOSED
PLAINTIFF’S MOTIONS FOR EXTENSION OF THE DISCOVERY TIME
LIMIT (DE 31 and 33)
Currently before the Court are Plaintiff’s February 28, 2017 and March 29,
2017 motions for a 30-day extension of the discovery deadline. (DE 31 and 33.)
The discovery cut-off is currently set as February 28, 2017. (DE 29.) Defendants
have not filed responses opposing either of the instant motions. “A respondent
opposing a motion must file a response, including a brief and supporting
documents then available.” E.D. Mich. LR 7.1(c)(1). “A response to a
nondispositive motion must be filed within 14 days after service of the motion.”
E.D. Mich. LR 7.1(e)(2)(B). Thus, in the absence of a scheduling order stating
otherwise, Defendants’ response to Plaintiff’s February 28, 2017 motion would
have been due on or before March 15, 2017 and the response to the March 29,

2017 motion would have been due on or before April 13, 2017. See Fed. R. Civ. P.
6(a), 6(d). To date, Defendants have not filed a response.
Accordingly, Plaintiff’s motions for an extension of time are GRANTED
AS UNOPPOSED. The discovery deadline shall be extended to forty days from
the date of this order, or JUNE 15, 2017.
IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: May 3, 2017
