Sharon Hulihan ("Hulihan"), a pro se litigant, alleges, inter alia, discrimination under Title II of the American with Disabilities Act. Defendants are Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada, Laidlaw Transit Services, Inc. and First Transit Inc. On June 28, 2010, Defendants filed a motion for summary judgment (#40). Plaintiff opposed (#45) the motion indicating, through an affidavit, that she did not conduct discovery during the period allotted for discovery because she believed discovery was somehow stayed until after the parties' settlement conference was concluded. We will treat Plaintiff's opposition as a motion under Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(f) and stay the case temporarily to allow Plaintiff to conduct discovery. No further such stays will be granted. IT IS, THEREFORE, HEREBY ORDERED that the case is STAYED for 60 days during which time the parties may conduct discovery.
