ORDER
15
Presently before the court is plaintiff’s ex parte motion seeking an extension of time (doc.
16
# 11) to respond to defendants’ motion to dismiss (doc. # 5). Defendants filed a response to this
17
motion (doc. #13) as well as their own motion to stay (doc. # 12).
18
Due to unforeseen medical issues, which caused a delay through a time when opposing
19
counsel was out of the country, plaintiff Jacob Dicus requests an extension of time to respond to
20
defendants’ motion to dismiss. Plaintiff also mentions that he will soon file a motion to amend his
21
complaint in connection with his response to the motion to dismiss.
22
Defendants do not oppose the extension, but argue that because it is not yet known whether
23
the court will allow plaintiff to amend his complaint, a stay of the deadlines for initial disclosures
24
and a stipulated discovery plan is necessary.
25
Good cause appearing,
26
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED that plaintiff’s motion seeking
27
an extension of time (doc. # 11) be, and the same hereby is, GRANTED. Plaintiff shall have up to,

2
will have seven days after the service of plaintiff’s response to file a reply.
3
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that defendants’ motion to stay deadlines for initial disclosures
4
and stipulated discovery plan (doc. # 12) be, and at the same time hereby is, GRANTED. The
5
deadlines regarding the submission of initial disclosures and a stipulated discovery plan shall be
6
stayed until the court’s ruling on defendants’ motion to dismiss (doc. # 5).
