Pending before the Court is a stipulation, filed on November 22, 2013, to extend the expired

17

discovery cutoff and the upcoming dispositive motion deadline. See Docket No. 23. All requests to

18

extend such deadlines must be supported by a showing of good cause. See Local Rule 26-4. In

19

addition, for those deadlines that have expired or are set to expire less than 21 days after the filing of

20

the request to extend, excusable neglect must also be shown. See id. The pending stipulation fails

21

to discuss excusable neglect (e.g., why the request was not filed at least 21 days before each

22

deadline) and fails to provide sufficient detail regarding good cause (e.g., whether the settlement

23

discussions commenced before the expiration of the discovery cutoff). Accordingly, the stipulation

24

is DENIED without prejudice.
