FALCON POINTE ASSOCIATION, D. NEV. CASE NO. 2:16-cv00814-GMN-CWH, ECF NO. 93 [FIRST REQUEST] 1 Plaintiff and counter-defendant The Bank of New York Mellon f/k/a The Bank of New York, 2 as Trustee for the Certificateholders of the CWABS, Inc. Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2004-7 3 (BoNYM), defendant, counter- and cross-claimant SFR Investments Pool 1, LLC and defendant 4 Montagne Marron Community Association stipulate to extend the dispositive motions deadline until 5 seventy five (75) days after the Court enters an order on Bank of America, N.A. (BANA)'s motion 6 for protective order in Bank of Am., N.A., successor by merger to BAC Home Loans Servicing, LP 7 f/k/a Countrywide Home Loans Servicing, LP v. Falcon Pointe Ass'n, D. Nev. Case No. 2:16-cv- 8 00814-GMN-CWH, ECF No. 93, as follows: 9 1. BANA filed its complaint on April 14, 2016 asserting a quiet title/declaratory AKERMAN LLP judgment claim against all defendants, breach of NRS 116.1113 and wrongful foreclosure claims 11 1635 VILLAGE CENTER CIRCLE, SUITE 200 LAS VEGAS, NEVADA 89134 TEL.: (702) 634-5000 – FAX: (702) 380-8572 10 against Montagne Marron Community Association and Alessi & Koenig, LLC and an injunction 12 claim against SFR. (ECF No. 1.) 13 14 15 2. The Court entered an initial discovery plan and scheduling order on June 21, 2016, setting a November 23, 2016 dispositive motions deadline. (ECF No. 19.) 3. The Court administratively stayed this case pending exhaustion of all appeals in 16 Bourne Valley Court Trust v Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Ninth Cir. Case No. 15-15233, on October 25, 17 2016. (ECF No. 27.) The case remained stayed until November 7, 2017. (ECF No. 35.) 18 4. The parties subsequently filed an amended discovery plan and scheduling order on 19 November 28, 2017, setting a March 7, 2018 discovery cut-off and April 6, 2018 dispositive motions 20 deadline. (ECF No. 39.) The Court approved the amended discovery plan. (ECF No. 40.) 21 5. SFR noticed BoNYM's Rule 30(b)(6) deposition on January 23, 2018. The notice is 22 substantially similar to the notice SFR served on BANA in Falcon Pointe last December. (See 23 Falcon Pointe, ECF No. 93-1 at 7-13.) BANA, through Akerman (who also represents BoNYM in 24 this case) met and conferred with SFR concerning the topics. The parties were unable to resolve 25 their dispute on three topics (i.e. topics 5, 8 and 9), but to avoid litigation costs and unnecessarily 26 burdening the Court with substantially-similar motions for protective order, agreed BANA would 27 file only one motion per judicial combination (e.g., BANA would file a motion in Falcon Pointe, but 28 would not file one in other cases assigned to Judges Navarro and Hoffman in which SFR served a 2 44217421;1 1 deposition notice on BANA containing these same three topics), and the parties will apply the 2 Court's ruling in other similarly-situated cases. BANA moved for a protective order in Falcon 3 Pointe on January 24, 2018. (See Falcon Pointe, ECF No. 93.) The motion remains pending. 4 6. BoNYM and SFR subsequently agreed the Court's order on BANA's motion for 5 protective order in Falcon Pointe, ECF No. 93, shall apply to SFR's notice of deposition to BoNYM 6 in this case. (ECF No. 50.) SFR also agreed to stay BoNYM's deposition as to all topics pending 7 the Court's ruling on BANA's motion for protective order in Falcon Pointe. (Id.) 8 7. To allow time for the Court to rule on BANA's motion for protective order in Falcon and avoid Rule 56(d) motions in this case, the parties stipulate to extending the dispositive motions 11 AKERMAN LLP Pointe, ECF No. 93, to allow time to complete BoNYM's deposition after the Court makes its ruling, 10 1635 VILLAGE CENTER CIRCLE, SUITE 200 LAS VEGAS, NEVADA 89134 TEL.: (702) 634-5000 – FAX: (702) 380-8572 9 deadline until seventy five (75) days from the date the Court enters an order on BANA's motion for 12 protective order in Falcon Pointe. The parties further stipulate SFR shall have forty five (45) days 13 to complete BoNYM's deposition after the Court enters an order on BANA's motion in Falcon 14 Pointe. The parties select these deadlines to allow sufficient time to coordinate a deposition and 15 obtain transcripts before filing dispositive motions. 16 8. The parties do not file this stipulation with the intent to delay, but instead to 17 streamline the anticipated summary judgment briefing and avoid Rule 56(d) motions. 18 /// 19 /// 20 /// 21 /// 22 /// 23 /// 24 /// 25 /// 26 /// 27 /// 28 /// 3 44217421;1 1 9. This is the parties' first request to extend the dispositive motions deadline. 2 This the 26th day of February, 2018.
