ORDER

Defendants have moved to stay the undersigned’s August 31, 2015 Order (filing 181).
Defendants believe a stay is necessary so that the Court may resolve their objections raised
in response to the Order. The motion to stay (filing 186) is granted.
Yesterday, counsel for Plaintiff sent the undersigned a letter requesting a scheduling
conference for purposes of revising case progression deadlines. The letter did not indicate
whether the parties have met and conferred in an effort to establish mutually acceptable
deadlines. Therefore, the undersigned declines Plaintiff’s request for a planning conference
at this time. The undersigned agrees that deadline extensions are likely necessary, but it is
up to the parties to attempt to resolve these issues on their own before seeking Court
involvement. If the parties cannot agree to appropriate extension deadlines, formal motions
for extensions of time can be filed. However, any such motion must include proposed
deadlines and a statement that the parties have met and conferred.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DATED September 10, 2015.
BY THE COURT:
S/ F.A. Gossett
United States Magistrate Judge
