Case No. 2:15-cv-01670-APG-NJK
ORDER
(Docket No. 87)

16

Pending before the Court is Plaintiff’s motion for spoliation sanctions. Docket No. 87. On January

17

5, 2017, the Court referred this case to the pro bono pilot program and that process is still ongoing. See

18

Docket No. 83. It is possible that a newly retained attorney may wish to amend the motion for sanctions

19

or pursue another legal approach generally. As a result, the Court will hold the pending motion for

20

spoliation sanctions in ABEYANCE. In the event that the motion remains pending (i.e., it is not

21

withdrawn or amended by a new appearing counsel), the response to the motion shall be filed by April 12,

22

2017. In the event pro bono counsel appears and does not withdraw or amend the motion, counsel shall

23

file a joint stipulation as to a briefing schedule within 21 days of the appearance by pro bono counsel.

24

IT IS SO ORDERED.
