Case No. 2:15-cv-01943-RFB-CWH
ORDER

12
13

Presently before the court is Plaintiffs Sandra Scharas and Francisco Vidal’s Motion for

14

Extension of Time to Respond to Motion for Sanctions (ECF No. 36), filed on August 21, 2017.

15

Ms. Scharas filed this motion on a pro se basis, stating that she and Mr. Vidal need additional time

16

to respond to the pending motion for sanctions because their attorney is moving to withdraw and

17

they are looking for a new attorney.

18

Plaintiffs’ attorney has filed a motion to withdraw that is pending before the court. (Mot. to

19

Withdraw (ECF No. 38).) Before moving to withdraw, however, Plaintiffs’ attorney responded to

20

the motion for sanctions. (Resp. to Mot. for Sanctions (ECF No. 37).) The court therefore will

21

deny Plaintiffs’ pro se motion for additional time to respond to the motion for sanctions as moot.

22

IT IS SO ORDERED.

23

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that attorney Craig Mueller must serve a copy of this order on

24
25

Plaintiffs and file proof of that service by September 1, 2017.
