This matter is before the Court on Plaintiffs’ Emergency Motion to Compel (#135) and

17

Emergency Motion to Extend Discovery (#134), both filed July 25, 2014.

18

1. Motion to Extend Discovery

19

The Court has reviewed the motion and finds good cause for the requested extension,

20

except that the Court agrees there is no need to extend the deadline to amend the pleadings or add

21

parties. Plaintiff is not precluded from filing a motion to amend the pleadings or add parties,

22

which would be reviewed under the standards set forth in DCD Programs, Ltd. v. Leighton, 833

23

F.2d 183 (9th Cir. 1987) and its progeny.

24

2. Motion to Compel

25

Plaintiffs’ motion to compel references twelve discovery responses for which Plaintiff

26

seeks to compel responses, but the specific requests and responses are not set forth (or attached)

27

to the motion. The local rules provide that “[a]ll motions to compel discovery or for protective

28

order shall set forth in full the text of the discovery originally sought and the response thereto, if
any.” LR 26-7(a).

1

Based on the foregoing and good cause appearing,

2

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiffs’ Emergency Motion to Compel (#135) is

4

denied without prejudice.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiffs’ Emergency Motion to Extend (#134) is
