Pending before the Court is the parties’ proposed discovery plan and scheduling order filed

16

on December 16, 2014. Docket No. 18. Previously, Plaintiff filed his own proposed discovery plan

17

and scheduling order, which was denied without prejudice. Docket Nos. 16, 17. On December 9,

18

2014, the Court ordered the parties to meet and confer and submit a stipulated discovery plan that

19

complies with the Local Rules. Docket No. 17. The parties’ current plan fails to comply with Local

20

Rule 26-1(d), in that the parties have failed to stipulate to the dates. Docket No. 18. Additionally,

21

the Court specifically stated in its prior order that Plaintiff’s proposed discovery plan misstated Local

22

Rule 26-4.1 Docket No. 17, at 1-2. Nonetheless, the parties subsequently submitted the pending

23

proposed discovery plan and scheduling order which, again, misstates Local Rule 26-4. Docket No.

24

18, at 3, 6-7.

“Third, Plaintiff’s proposed discovery plan misstates Local Rule 26-4, in that it provides
that requests to extend deadlines in the scheduling order need only be filed 20 days before the
discovery cut-off. See Docket No. 16 at 5. Local Rule 26-4 requires that any request to extend
deadlines set forth in the scheduling order must be submitted at least 21 days before the subject
deadline.” Docket No. 17, at 1-2.

Accordingly,

2

IT IS ORDERED:

3

1. The Court hereby SETS a hearing on the parties’ proposed discovery plan and scheduling

4

order (Docket No. 18) for December 19, 2014, at 3:00 p.m. in Courtroom 3B.

5

2. Alternatively, the filing of a stipulated proposed discovery plan, that complies with the

6

Local Rules, by that date will suffice to vacate this hearing.

7

3. In an effort to ensure future compliance and complete understanding of the Local Rules,

8

the Court hereby ORDERS attorneys Leonard Stone, Adam Levitt, Kyle McGee, Patrick

9

Reilly, and Brian Anderson to file a certification with the Court no later than 12:00 p.m. on

10

December 19, 2014, indicating that they have read and comprehend Local Rules 26-1 and

11

26-4. Counsel are advised that similar violations in the future may result in the imposition

12

of sanctions.
