Case No. 2:13-cv-00618-JCM-NJK
ORDER DENYING PROPOSED
DISCOVERY PLAN (Docket No. 12)

16
17

Pending before the Court is the second Proposed Discovery Plan and Scheduling Order,

18

Docket No. 12, which is hereby DENIED. The Court previously identified a number of deficiencies

19

in the parties’ initial proposed discovery plan. See Docket No. 11. “First, the Local Rules require

20

proposed discovery plans to ‘state the date the first defendant answered or otherwise appeared.’

21

Local Rule 26-1(e)(1). The submitted discovery plan fails to do so. . . . Fourth, requests for

22

extending discovery deadlines must be filed no later than 21 days before the subject deadline sought

23

to be extended. See Local Rule 26-4. The submitted discovery plan misstates Local Rule 26-4.”

24

Docket No. 11. The second Proposed Discovery Plan includes the same deficiencies.

25

The Court’s previous order identified a number of violations of the Local Rules by the

26

parties. See Docket No. 11 at 2. In resubmitting their discovery plan without correcting the

27

deficiencies identified by the Court, the parties have now also failed to comply with a Court order.

28

Once again, the Court reminds the parties that it expects strict compliance with the Local Rules and

1

Court orders, and that failure to do so in the future may result in sanctions. See Local Rule IA 4-1.

2

IT IS SO ORDERED.
