(First Request)

Defendants.

Plaintiff Dario Olivas, by and through his attorney, Travis N. Barrick, Esq., and

22

Defendants Nevada Department of Corrections and Nicholas Galbiso, by and through

23

counsel, Adam Paul Laxalt, Nevada Attorney General, and Jared M. Frost, Senior Deputy

24

Attorney General, of the State of Nevada, Office of the Attorney General, hereby stipulate

25

and agree to a forty-five (45) day extension of the deadline to respond to Plaintiff’s Fourth

26

Amended Complaint.

27

The parties here state that there is good cause for an extension. On March 5, 2018,

28

Plaintiff filed his Fourth Amended Complaint. ECF No. 48. Absent an extension,

Case 2:14-cv-01801-JCM-VCF Document 52 Filed 03/20/18 Page 2 of 2

1

Defendants Nevada Department of Corrections and Nicholas Galbiso are required to

2

respond to the Fourth Amended Complaint by March 20, 2018. See FRCP 15(a)(3).

3

However, the Fourth Amended Complaint adds eleven (11) new parties and four (4)

4

new claims for relief, comprising approximately ten (10) pages of new content. Compare

5

ECF No. 29 (Plaintiff’s Third Amended Complaint) with ECF No. 48. Defendants need

6

additional time to review and investigate the new allegations and claims in the Fourth

7

Amended Complaint, and also to complete a response. In addition, since the filing of the

8

Fourth Amended Complaint, Plaintiff and Defendants have been working cooperatively to

9

ensure the orderly appearance of the new parties. See ECF No. 51 (waivers of service).

10

Consequently, there is good cause for a forty-five (45) day extension of the response

11

deadline.

12

DATED this 20th day of March, 2018.
