[PROPOSED] SECOND
STIPULATED DISCOVERY PLAN

Championship and UFC,

SECOND STIPULATED DISCOVERY PLAN AND SCHEDULING ORDER

This is the second stipulation for an extension of time to complete expert discovery and to

1
2

file dispositive motions. On November 3, 2017, the Court entered a Stipulated Discovery Plan

3

and Scheduling Order (“Scheduling Order”) setting deadlines through dispositive motions that

4

adjusted the deadlines for dispositive motions. ECF No. 508. The prior Scheduling Order did not

5

extend any deadlines more than 30 days and extended deadlines after Rebuttal Expert Reports

6

only one week.
Beginning on December 13, 2017, the parties met and conferred to schedule the remaining

7
8

expert depositions. As a result of the this meet and confer process, the parties agreed that, due to

9

circumstances outside of the parties’ control and the addition of a third economic expert for

10

Plaintiffs who will principally respond to the report of Zuffa’s third economic expert, two

11

minimal adjustments to the Scheduling Order were required to accommodate the experts’

12

schedules. First, the parties propose that the last day to depose Plaintiffs’ rebuttal experts be

13

extended to February 8, 2018. The deposition of Plaintiffs’ third economic rebuttal expert is

14

scheduled to take place on that day. Second, as a result of the short time between the final

15

rebuttal expert deposition and the date Daubert and Class Certification motions are currently due,

16

the parties propose extending all deadlines after the final rebuttal expert deposition by only two

17

weeks with the exceptions of the summary judgment opposition and reply briefs. As those briefs

18

fall within the latter half of the summer and early fall, in light of the attorneys’ various planned

19

travel and vacation schedules, the parties request that both deadlines be extended by two weeks

20

each, and that the time for filing each subsequent summary judgment brief be extended by

21

approximately two weeks.
