Case No. 2:14-cv-01584-APG-GWF
ORDER

This matter is before the Court on Plaintiffs’ Motion to Extend Discovery Deadlines (#70),
filed on October 1, 2015. Defendants’ Response (#75) was filed on October 15, 2015.

15

Plaintiffs request a 60 day extension of the discovery deadlines in order to complete

16

depositions and written discovery. Plaintiffs represent that they have been working diligently to

17

complete discovery. Furthermore, Plaintiffs counsel represents that other matters before this Court

18

will require significant amounts of time to prepare, which will hinder counsel’s ability to complete

19

discovery in a timely fashion. Defendants argue that Plaintiffs have been stalling and have delayed

20

discovery by not completing it in a timely manner. Defendants also represent that they do not

21

require an extension of discovery, and request that, if an extension is to be granted, that it be limited

22

to 30 days. Plaintiffs have sufficiently established good cause for the extension, but that the

23

extension will be limited to 30 days, as requested by Defendants. Accordingly,

24
25

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED the Plaintiffs’ Motion to Extend Discovery Deadlines (#70) is
granted. The following discovery plan and scheduling order dates shall apply:

26

1.

Last date to complete discovery: January 27, 2016.
